Re: [Owfs-developers] New problem building from CVS

[Paul A. <pau...@gm...>]

Great to hear.
Sounds like swig is an issue -- I ll have to test the newest version.

owmon and owtap are tcl/tk programs. (It's easy to pack a
cross-platform graphical program in a singe file, and the networking
is smooth. There are even packagers for windows binaries.)

Can you post the man page errors? Man page documentation is even worse
than libtool/autoconf but it would be nice to fix
