While we're on the subject, I noticed recently that cmake is in the

I agree that version-control packages are used for a lot more than

It's definitely connected to programming, but then so is glibc,
binutils and gcc. But I don't think I'd classify them under a

Bruce,
Is there anything significant left that uses glib1 or gtk1?. Looking at
the book, the following reference glib1:
general/sysutils/mc.xml: Can use glib2
kde/devel/kdebindings.xml:KDE3 - Optional
networking/netutils/wireshark.xml:Can use glib2

Agreed. There should be a programming languages section, and then
perhaps a programming tools section. Combining them is simply
confusing.

I believe you and Wayne, but it's not very obvious to me from the page
you reference. The page says
Gsview old but useful viewer of ps and pdf files. Its unical feature -
possibillty to display postscript coordinates for point under mouse
cursor - very useful for manual writing and editing postscript files.
I don't know other viewers with such functionality.
