I would too, since I like it more than nv. I would have tried to compile that one too, but it requires some odd libraries (like the BLT lib) that I don't have here. > > NEXT: xfqcam > > I have a working FreeBSD binary (only if you don't have bidirectional > port... for some reason it doesn't work with bidirectional ports).

I think my problem here was misunderstanding what qcam does. I thought it was an X app; instead, it takes snapshots. It was putting them back onto stdout and I thought it was barfing all over :) RTFM.... > I know how this feels. I spent like 4 hours getting some of this stuff > working... ;( Hope my tars help. And I wish I knew some more Unix programming so i could hack on this stuff. Thanks for your help!
