Ok, my fault. I just had not enough time to get everything round and I
forgot to insert the links. I hope I can get this fixed the next days.
Currently I have very much problem s with my fingers (don't laugh!)
because I hacked to my on my computer keyboard and my piano... very
painful.

Come on... this is not a discrimination - more a lack of time to check
out many other distros. I have only Debian around and at this time
I cannot install more distros on my vmware to check if fgcom works. Have
in mind that after release in September nearly noone had interest in
testing fgcom. Why should I do much work if there are no users?

I will do my best the next days/weeks. Until now this was a one person
show and I have parallel a job, a family (and my piano). Give me some
time and fgcom will hopefully work also on Linux (all!), Windows and
Mac.

Regards, Holger
