Good, I'm pleased you find my contributions useful. However you only partially answered my question. You explained that some devices natively support ADD/MODIFY/DELETE status, and other devices only support ADD/MODIFY (indirectly via timestamps) and yet others support none. But that is not my que

The plugin doc is up at: http://www.multisync.org/developer/plugin_howto.html It looks pretty good. I need to review a few of the details (memory management, etc.) and give it some more review before giving it to a wider audience. This should be a very useful document, so thanks for getting it

Hi Armin, Yes it will be good for multisync to bridge the Gnome-KDE divide. No, you shouldnt have to do anything special to test the KDE plugin, except you may have to edit some include file paths in the src/Makefile to suit your installation. Of course, it would be wise to backup your KDE addres

2004-05-04 Thread Stewart Heitmann
