-
- xdiary was initially developed as an exercise for me to learn the basics
- of widget writing and toolkit programming. However, the further along
- it came the more I realized that a useful tool could be made of it.
-
- In its current form (version 1.0) xdiary provides a somewhat robust tool
- for associating text with a specified date, suitable for keeping a daily
- diary or work log. By using templates, the diary entries can be
- configured or personalized to be suitabile for a wide range of needs.
- See the man page for more details.
-
- xdiary will only build under Release 4. The Makefile supplied is the
- result of running xmkmf on a Sun-3 with Release 4 installed. Running
- xmkmf on your system should provide you with a suitable makefile, if
- the one provided doesn't work right off.
-
- There are many improvements currently under consideration, and I am
- interested in hearing "reasonable" requests for features and enhancements
- for the next version. I have no intention of adding xclock-like
- functionality to xdiary (for an "integrated desktop" feel) so please
- send those requests to /dev/null.
-
- xdiary was developed on a Harris Night Hawk 3800 running CX/UX 5.0, and
- it has also been tested on a Sun-3 running SunOS 4.0.3. Please email
- comments and bug reports directly to me (at the address listed above).
-
- A large part of the xdiary coding effort was devoted to the CalendarWidget in
- hopes that other developers might use it in their own applications. The
- Calendar.doc document is in the standard Xaw widget document format and can be
- printed out on unix systems via:
-
- tbl macros.t strings.xaw Calendar.doc | roff -ms
-
- where macros.t and strings.xaw can be found in the mit/doc/Xaw/ directory
- of the X tree.
