It is supposed to run in text, svga and X11 modes. I have it running in text mode under Slackware 7.1 ( DeLi Linux). It works well there. It also has javascript.
I haven't loaded svaglib or gotten it to work under x11. At this point I'm just wondering if anyone has any experience, good or bad, with it. -- Rob Steinmetz To unsubscribe from SURVPC send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe SURVPC in the body of the message.
