- Elm and NN are ported to 4.0, just runs fine. I'm thinking about porting

- Is someone else working on this?

- I've requested TRN 2.0 and it comes with patches to 2.1 and 2.2.
- Unfortunately the patches can't be installed with the patch program,
- it needs a special program for the patches. Because I'm running
- tin and nn now, I stopped working at it. Is TRN worth the trouble
- to search for the special patch program? Anyone familar with trn, tin
- and nn to compare this readers and give some informations?
