Reposted-by: emv@msen.com (Edward Vielmetti, MSEN) I've just put tgif-2.3-beta in the following places for anonymous ftp: export.lcs.mit.edu contrib/tgif-2.3-beta.tar.Z cs.ucla.edu pub/tgif-2.3-beta.tar.Z Here's a short list of the major added features/bug fixes. 1) Support importing of a subset of X11 Pixmap format files. (Colors are limited. See tgif.man in the distribution for details.) 2) Support HyperCard-like mechanism for ``teleporting'' or ``traveling'' between tgif drawings. 3) Support upper 128 characters of a font. These characters can now be accessed through <ESC> sequences. For example, <ESC>A gives Aacute. 4) Fix bugs related to printing large bitmaps. (Used to tile the size of the bitmap image with part of the bitmap.) I've tested this release as much as I could. When all the bug reports are in, I'll post the patch and bring tgif to 2.4. -- Bill Cheng // UCLA Computer Science Department // (213) 206-7135 3277 Boelter Hall // Los Angeles, California 90024 // USA william@CS.UCLA.EDU ...!{uunet|ucbvax}!cs.ucla.edu!william
