xisp is packaged for Debian Package: xisp Priority: optional Section: contrib/net Installed-Size: 430 Maintainer: Martin Bialasinski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Architecture: i386 Version: 2.5p4-1 Depends: ppp (>= 2.2.0f), libc6, libforms0.88, xlib6g (>= 3.3-5), xpm4g (>= 3.4j -0) Suggests: menu (>= 1.5) Filename: dists/stable/contrib/binary-i386/net/xisp_2.5p4-1.deb Size: 170042 MD5sum: d85ccf93325250355515cee8b00cf4c2 Description: A user-friendly X interface to pppd/chat. The xisp package implements a user-friendly X interface to pppd/chat and provides maximum feedback from the dial-in and login phases on a browser screen, as well as a manual login terminal window. It also provides greater versatility in interrupting a call in progress and in general enhances the user's feeling of "what's going on", especially if he/she is not all that well acquainted with the intricacies of system log files. Xisp also has means to track your phonecosts. -- Brian --------------------------------------------------------------------- Mechanical Engineering [EMAIL PROTECTED] Purdue University http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/~servis ---------------------------------------------------------------------
