[TuxKart-devel] Patch for status text during game start

[Mads B. D. <ma...@ch...>]

Hi there. 

The following is a patch against tuxkart-0.0.3 that adds a status text
during start of a new game.

It changes the "static" declaration of 2 functions, and I do not know if
it uses pu correctly - I hacked it in to demonstrate OSS to a friend.

If replying, please cc me, as I am not on the tuxkart-devel list.

Thanks, 

Mads

Sure, some companies might run successful businesses by making Linux easier
to use and offering technical support for the systems, but no business model
based on service and support is ever going to approach the incredible level
of profitability of a Microsoft-style 'pay us for breathing' business
