Thinking again about this, I'd really like to have maintainership of the port, since recent changes (the 0.8 upgrade, in particular) totally broke tvision and no one but us noticed. :) > > The original code is copyrighted by Borland but is freely available from > > the net.

I'll hide under my stone again. > But i would prefer using tvision because of the license. I think there's been some confusion here. The text max quoted is from http://tvision.sf.net/. But this is the rhtvision port. The tvision port is exactly that, the Sigala's port. So if we can revert back to tvision as I wish, everything will be well. In the meantime, rhtivision is a workable replacement, however bad it is. But it is clear in my mind that we cannot package libh linking against rhtvision without modifications to rhtvision, since it links uselessly against X11. I just ported libh to rhtvision in order to unbreak it completely under -current. A. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-libh" in the body of the message
