Re: Is there ANY .pdf format editor for Linux with a WYSIWYG GUI

s. Quite useful when your handwriting is as bad as mine, and especially when they require triplicate. The overall effect is similar to taking such forms and putting them through a (real) typewriter. fwiw, I used Adobe's Acrobat for windows (the full app, not just Reader, but it'd be worth seein

Re: The nature of testing and where can others help (Was Re: HowTofor Gnome2??)

e packages are coming" counts as an option tho. Gnome2.x on Unstable YMMV - "Works For Me" at this very moment, but that doesn't mean it'll stay that way. I don't recall having any problem that required more than a downgrade of the offending package tho, but that's no assurance it'll still work tomorrow. Gnome2.x build-scripts a very "un-debian" solution is one of several build-scripts to compile gnome into a system-independant location (ie, /opt, or $HOME). Pros? This gives you exactly what you compiled, and a chance to tarball it before you build the next release .. and in theory, shouldn't be affected too much by changes to the rest of the system Cons .. very time consuming, unsupported, and doesn't aid Debian's bug-hunting. - jhbuild (in gnome CVS) builds from CVS branches - Garnome ( www.gnome.org/~jdub/garnome )builds releases from tarballs (currently 2.3.x)) Regards, Shaun. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
