It came up passingly in a previous conversation, so let's give it its own.
In version 2.2, ctwm grew support for using SDSC's imconv package and library for loading various arbitrary image formats. I don't know when that was, but from the releases I have found dates for that would be somewhere probably in 1993 or so. The last release of imtools was in 1995, and by all appearances it doesn't even pretend to build on any systems you're likely to get your hands on. It's not a huge burden on the codebase, to be sure. But I think it's still pretty much dead code at this point, and simplifying things is always good. So, is anybody using IMCONV-built ctwm and "im:something" images? Are you're planning to use the next ctwm release on the 32-bit IRIX 6.5 box you're doing that on? Then speak up, and we'll keep it! Otherwise, I'll expect to shortly land the branch at <https://code.launchpad.net/~fullermd/ctwm/deorbit-imconv> which dikes it out. -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | [email protected] Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ On the Internet, nobody can hear you scream.
