jxclient was (is probably still) considered experimental (no map2 support, I think) since not so long ago (a few days/weeks), so yes it isn't mentioned. But even in its current state I much prefer the interface :) (your mileage may vary, of course) And I suggest you do a small experiment: find a Windows computer, and try to build the GTK1 client there :) You'll see it isn't that easy ^_- (and I'm not even sure it does work on Macs...) > I pulled down ant (87 MB with deps), and still didn't have a clue where to > go from there.

But I do hope it'll soon be in good shape, thanks to Ragnor's work, and usable :) Nicolas -- http://nicolas.weeger.free.fr [Petit site d'images, de textes, de code, bref de l'aléatoire !]
