I'm forwarding this to you all because it's spurred me to do some actual work on libmdate + mdate for a change :) Put briefly, Karlis suggests making correlations a command-line option to mdate, and include an option to output Dreamspell tokens. I think a correlation option is a very good idea, as it forces me to look again at the mess the command-line option parsing is, and the nuisance of having a hard-coded correlation in the library. Another imperative was upgrading the autoconf system for the imminent Debian 3.0, and cutting down the size of the mdate package by putting gmdate into its own module. This also has the advantage that I can finally put the gnome and applet versions I've written into that package as well. I've so far altered a number of libmdate functions and added a new typdef for a correlation option; I'll put up an alpha version of the library (guess it should be something like 0.1.5 if i'm interpreting the libtool rules correctly) at my geocities site, because the cvs tree will need quite a bit of work. I'll let you know when I've done that, but knowing David, he'll probably beat me to it :) enjoy :) -- Sean Dwyer <ew...@ca...> Web: http://www.geocities.com/ewe2_au/ |
