Okay.

The conclusion seems to be that the CPL is OK. Jens> Anyways, VCG is under GPL, so I fail to see the connection...? The thread is about a particular package newly under CPL - graphviz. graphviz can do many of the same things vcg can, and seems to be more widely used. And, after seeing the vcg source, graphviz is probably easier to maintain <grin> -- I wonder which is the best virus for unix and if I can write a better one in Microsoft BASIC ?
