I'll disagree here. There are many useful GTK+-1 applications out there. XMMS being one of them. Noted on the XMMS home page: "For the fifth year in a row XMMS has been voted Favourite Audio Tool by the readers of LinuxJournal." Not that their self-advertising is worth a whole bunch, but still, this must mean folks still use the package. In fact, I'd say more audio developers create XMMS plugins than all other plugins combined for the other tools. -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 13:01:00 up 10 days, 21:25, 3 users, load average: 0.56, 0.15, 0.10 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
