I have a successful build of this on *BSD and Gentoo machine(s).  So I can't complain.  And I love staring at the code in an attempt to fix things. Michel Briand wrote: It's amasing! E16 works for years, and even if I switched to Entranced one year ago, I still use E16 because it's a STABLE environment I can rely on. I use E16 on 4 computers, 2 at home and 2 at work, and I use the same customizations for more than 6 years: - all important features are keybinded (switch, maximize, shade, iconify, ...) - all my favorite programs are binded too (scrot, feh, rox, ... + a number of scripts of mine for start/pause/stop CD or XMMS) - my file menu and sub-menus are filled with all my fav applications too All that stuff I repeat DONT HAVE CHANGED FOR YEAR. Users that want to USE their computer to do some duty work, or even users that want to USE their computer to hack for other projects, need a STABLE environment. *** SO I WONDER WHY YOU HAVE CHANGED THE CONFIG FILE STRUCTURE AND SYNTAX RECENTLY **** *** IT'S A BIG, AN AMASING MISTAKE THAT CRIPLE THE RESPECT YOU OUGHT FOR THE WORK YOU'VE DONE **** Please pardon me, but many Open Source projects are suffering the same. It's not your fault. You intended to improve E and I thank you for that. But why change things that are working for years ? Please disregard this mail if you don't understand what I mean. ;) Best regards, Michel Mark R.

Given that e17 still only appears to work on Linux, and not the other Unixes out there (is that still true) there are indeed still a lot of us about =O) I've got this running on Solaris 11/Express builds on SPARC, SunRays and AMD64 laptops, and still love it. I can't thank you enough for the work you've put in here. But still I'll try - many, many thanks =O) Ta, Mark. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems?
