Linux Mandrake 8.0.

I know I'm not writing any software, but I think it's extremely important with free software. IMHO abcm2ps is the superior abc implementation and it's open source. And Jean-Francois is even *very* actively developing it. I can live with the disabling of 'advanced' features, as long as that doesn't include stuff like saving and printing... I would prob not use anyway, I'll prob stick with abcm2ps, but some of my unsaved friends would be easier to get started it there were a mature, free gui alternative for their platform - you guessed it: windows... I was just curious about what the heck skink was, and I can only say that it looked nice, and that I hope you'll continue to develop it. -- love, peace & harmony Atte To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
