- I just compiled and uploaded XLoadImage to banjo.concert.net in
- /pub/Linux/X11/Incoming/xloadimage.T.Z. This file is both tarred and
- compressed, and contains all of the sources, a Makefile, 2 README's,
- and a .a. The only problem I have enocuntered so far with it is that
- the -fullscreen option uses *huge* amounts of storage, and will
- quietly die if it runs out. Also, you may want to edit the file
- /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/XLoadImage to point to the correct public
- image directories.
-
- I hope this is the correct way to upload files (posting an
- announcement to the net and cc'ing it to abc@concert.net). I looked
- through the last 3000 subject lines and couldn't find anything
- appropriate, and it was not mentioned as being part of the FAQ in the
- FAQ summary.
-
- Alan: Could the greets in the /pub/Linux/[,X11]/Incoming directories
- mention how uploads should be handled? Currently, the greet in
- Linux/Incoming only says to contact you if there is a problem, and the
- other one fails to mention you at all!
-
- Shouldn't this be FAQ?
