The Kanji console (kon) is ported from Linux, and this console is GPL'ed. I hope it is not the problem because libdialog is in /usr/src/gnu, but I'm worry about this point. We're planning to write original I18N console as the extention of syscons, but it can't be done in a few days of course :-). -- HOSOKAWA, Tatsumi E-mail: hosokawa@mt.cs.keio.ac.jp WWW homepage: http://www.mt.cs.keio.ac.jp/person/hosokawa.html Department of Computer Science, Keio University, Yokohama, Japan
