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
