Sometimes they're written with KDE 1.x and Qt 2.0, sometimes KDE 1.x and Qt 1.45, sometimes KDE 2.x and Qt 2.0. Imura-san also has a few Qt/KDE programs that can only use his i18n'd Qt 1.45 libraries. Let me know when they perfect their release engineering and I will be happy to consider them separate products. In the meantime, I still have to support 2 versions of Qt and 2 versions of KDE (well, once they release KDE2), so that users will be able to use the widest range of Qt/KDE software. -- Will Andrews <andrews@technologist.com> GCS/E/S @d- s+:+>+:- a--->+++ C++ UB++++ P+ L- E--- W+++ !N !o ?K w--- ?O M+ V-- PS+ PE++ Y+ PGP+>+++ t++ 5 X++ R+ tv+ b++>++++ DI+++ D+ G++>+++ e->++++ h! r-->+++ y?
