I believe it was in the 1999 timeframe. But, the author of Ximple chose not to give credit and instead decided to put this at the top of the code:
/* * Ximple * Author: Alfred Kayser * Copyright IBM Corp. 2002 All Rights Reserved */ Oh well. I guess IBM owns everything... :-) Actually, since no copyright was attached to the article, I guess Alfred was within his rights to use it freely, but to claim ownership???? That just seems wrong. Leland BTW: I don't really care about this whole thing. It's a cool little app that given proper care and feeding could be useful to someone. Not me. I'd use THE instead if I wanted an Xedit-style editor. Just thought I'd bring it up.
