That is certainly an advantage...but.. my main problem with xfsft is that it was (when i looked at it) distributed only as a patch...that doesn't make it easy to package. That means if anyone wnats to package it they first have to get the X source... then either incorperate the patch into xbase or split off xfs from xbase and apply the patch. That could be some work (not to mention a huge source download) It will be allot easier once xfs is split off into its own package. -Steve -- /* -- Stephen Carpenter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>------------ */ E-mail "Bumper Stickers": "A FREE America or a Drug-Free America: You can't have both!"
