Hi All: I am still working on it, albeit silently...
Here is where I am at: == I am taking parts that read the configuration file from tuxpaint and putting them in. == I was also thinking about a chooser for the configuration file (e.g. ~/.tuxpaintrc or /etc/tuxpaint.conf), with platform-specific names for tuxpaint.conf. == Languages in the option box, with the stuff for getting the languages right from tuxpaint. == _Much_ better config file writer. The one that is up in CVS now was just a test to make sure that it would write correct options.... I always knew that I would need to rewrite this function. I have been so busy with work and stuff that I haven't had much time to work on it, but I am still plugging away with as much time as I can devote to it. I'll try to put some of the easier fixes in CVS by the end of week... Sorry for the silence, but I have had 2 major deadlines with work the past two weeks, and now I should have a *bit* more time :) --thanks jan --- Bill Kendrick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hey Jan, any progress on Tux Paint Config lately?

But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger. --Hermann Goering <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>< __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
