ssdken@watson.Claremont.EDU (Ken Nelson) (09/01/90)
I have just uploaded Xcard 1.0 to expo.lcs.mit.edu in the contrib
directory.
This is the first public release of Xcard. I encourage you to
download it, compile and run it.
I am not posting Xcard to comp.sources.x yet, I am going to wait for
it to stabalize from any bug reports that come from people who download
it.
I developed Xcard on a Sun 3/50 running X11R4. It only compiles against
X11R4 but talks to R3 and R4 servers.
If you get Xcard going, send me an e-mail, my ego likes to know how
many people are using stuff I write.
Note: Please send bug reports to ssdken@jarthur.claremont.edu.
I am going out of town from 4-12 Sept and will not be able to
handle them immediately, so please be patient.
Good Luck,

About Xcard
Xcard models a stack of index cards. You can create, edit, sort, and
search index cards. Only one set of index cards can be used at
a time, but you can merge cardfiles together.
Look at the man page for more info.
Making Xcard
Type : make xcard
No Imakefile yet. I am having trouble getting Imake to cruise
recursive directories (like the dynobj directory). I would welcome
an Imakefile from anybody who wants to send one.
Testing Xcard
Type: xcard ToDo.cf
This runs xcard on the sample ToDo cardfile. Play around with it,
see if you like it!
Bugs/Improvements
I would like to here from you if you install and use Xcard. A
simple e-mail with Xcard in the subject line would be fine.
If you find bugs, or want to offer improvements please e-mail
or call as a last resort.
Send bugs,comments,patches to:
ssdken@jarthur.claremont.edu
Include Xcard in the subject line.
