    Hi John, Thanks for all of your work on this tool. It would be really nice if you can provide the already modified code. It does not make sense to do all the work again. Debugging is something else than try to start from scratch with shift to gtk3. Best regards R.

    Hi, Thanks John for your work Could you try to post your WIP tree ? On debian side we may help to debug rouca@debian.org

    linSmith was added to MacPorts in 2004, back when the project was called DarwinPorts; we changed our name to MacPorts in 2006. Not all of our contributors always inform the upstream developers when their software becomes available in MacPorts, but you do mention the availability of this port here: http://jcoppens.com/soft/linsmith/distros.en.php If you retain this information on your web site, please change the link to https://ports.macports.org/port/linsmith and change "Mac OS X" to "macOS".

    Hello Ryan! Thanks for the heads-up on the MacPort of LinSmith... To be honest, this was the first time I heard about the program being ported at all ;-) Kudos! Here are some comments: configure: WARNING: 'missing' script is too old or missing ... That error is new to me. I don't have the code here, but I seem to remember the 'missing' script was there. The 'implicit' declarations issues, I understand. I could solve them, but I haven't seen them here. Are you using gcc? Apart from that, I am a little...

    Hello, I'm a developer with MacPorts. We have version 0.99.31 of linSmith in MacPorts and it does not build on current versions of macOS (with clang). I noticed 0.99.32 and 0.99.33 were released last year and hoped that the build issues might have been corrected but they have not been. At configure time, this message is printed: configure: WARNING: 'missing' script is too old or missing I can use autoreconf to work around that, but at build time, these errors occur: remote.c:40:37: error: non-void...

Thank you for kind words - I really appreciate them! I have already translated large parts to Gtk3 and Goocanvas, which were the main reason that the package is not in Debian and ubuntu anymore.

    Hello, I registered here just to say thank you for such an incredibly useful tool. I really enjoy using it to understand what happens to my antennas and it helps a lot. The package is not there for Debian Bookworm and I had no luck compiling it from source. But I managed to make the Appimage version above work by copying a few libraries that the program needs from an older Debian that had them (libgnomeui-2 libgnomecanvas-2, libgnome-2, libbonobo-2, libbonoboui-2, libart_lgpl_2, libbonobo-activation,...
