Actually, it will be very appreciated! :) What about taking the files needed by tix from the tk distribution and put them in tix/patches or tix/files? Then you just need to add a -I directive in the makefile so that tix can compile. That way the usr/local/include directory remains clean. As long as we don't have 100 ports requiring each 100kb of include files I don't see any problem. > Satoshi Jean-Marc _____________________________________________________________________________ Jean-Marc Zucconi Observatoire de Besancon F 25010 Besancon cedex PGP Key: finger jmz@cabri.obs-besancon.fr =============================================================================
