I am trying to use KDE's Kate programmers editor but there is a bug with X11 (even in 0.3) where the + and * keys don't work correctly (try to program Java without the + key). What is the next best window manager that will work on my mac and can run Kate at close to the speed of Apples X11 User

[Fink-beginners] libtool 1.3.5

2003-03-19 Thread Robert Isenberg

You need a newer version of system-xfree86. If you were using "fink install", then just do a "fink selfupdate-cvs" to update your package descriptions. If you were using binaries, post back on the list. On Tue, 2003-03-18 at 23:38, James Schultz wrote: > I'm new to Mac OS X and Fink. I'm tryi
