Yeah I know I have been porting Glib/gtk/pango/atk for a while now. Oh any by the way, HUGE kudos on very VERY useful and well written stuff. The libcharset stuff is something I always glossed over, to my detriment. I need to submit patches for it to play nicely on OpenServer and UnixWare.
Not sure of you like to know this sort of thing but both glib/gtk 1.2.10 and 2.2.1 now ship standard with OpenServer 5.0.7, released yesterday. If you are interested I'd be more than happy to send you a copy or two. Next up on my desired list of things in the "mind-boglingly useful open source" category to add is Xfree86 itself. Our current X server is still release 5. *UGGGG*. But hopefully the fact that Xfree now compiles "out of the box" it will be easier for folks to use it until I can get it packaged for those customers of ours that cant even spell 'cc' let alone use it :) Kean _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
