Hi LynX,
As you can see this program works only on Windows and it did not comply
with "My project runs primarily on a completely free OS".
Indeed. Although I appreciate the efforts and the extension of Emacs,
my initial reaction is to say that no independent project on savannah
should be Windows-only.
However, I don't know if there is precedent for accepting similar
"Windows extensions of free software" as sv projects.
What do others think?
Thanks,
Karl

Subject: [Savannah-users] project approval
Hello,
I have a little question, and would be grateful if you answer me. I want
to submit following project:
PropertiesWindow is a command-line program which shows Windows "File
Properties" dialog box for specified file or directory.
This program can be used as a part of extensions for GNU Emacs Win32
dired mode.
Written on C++ using WinAPI
As you can see this program works only on Windows and it did not comply
with "My project runs primarily on a completely free OS". But I provide
it with aim to be used like extension of dired in Gnu Emacs on Windows.
So my question is, can I submit it or not?
Binary and src of it you can find on
http://savannah.gnu.org/submissions_uploads/PropertiesWindow.tar.gz
Thank you,
LX
P.S. Also I have written another program which displays list of Windows
hard drives and it also for Gnu Emacs on Windows.
