It looks like the following are dependent on xview: bibcard, calctool, contool, ftptool, ghfaxviewer, imaze, olvwm, perf, props, skip, slingshot, textedit, videotext, workman, xbarcode, xli, xrolo, xvmahjongg, xvmines, xvnews most of which are covered by other applications --and generally better. The only one I am interested in is xrolo and it does not work that well as xview does not display correctly. I have not been able to find the original rolo which I believe used curses --which is more than adequate for a plain file database. Are you aware of any other application which indexes records and allows unlimited flat text data per record? If not, I can probably find and fix the unreferenced declaration; however, until I look at the code, I am not willing to commit to maintaining the rest of it --particularly the numerous display glitches which may be in either xrolo or xview. Probably easier to write a new one... Thanx To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
