The following is an smail question.
This machine will soon have its own hostname through a
dynamic IP arrangement (with slightly limited hours) and will
only be up about half the time. Mail will be routed to an
ISP when the machine is offline.

Anyone has some ideas where the newt documentation is.
I'd really like to use newt for a text gui, so I don't have to write one
my self! I already wasted a week on a menuing system for a textedbased
program, and I don't have another of a windowing tool kit.
Thanks in advance.
