There seems to be a problem right now, all I get is cvs.exe [checkout aborted]: recv() from server cvs.sourceforge.net: EOF Dave ps you should be able to use the instructions at http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=3366 or if you have already got posix2 from cvs just CD \pathto\posix2 cvs login hit return for the password cvs update -dp Dave **= Email 2 ==========================** Date: Mon, 10 Mar 2003 16:42:31 +0100 (CET) From: Stefan Neis Subject: Re: GSVIEW future On Sun, 9 Mar 2003, John Poltorak wrote: > I was under the impression that GsView comes with source and a Makefile > and is readily buildable on OS/2... Sure. Currently, if even comes with an OS/2 binary. 5.0 probably won't be readily buildable on OS/2 but all this talk about porting some vapourware to be released in the future has to make some less favourable assumptions. > Is GTK+ uptodate on OS/2?

I'm aware of nice GTK+ 1.2 ports but haven't seen much about GTK-2, so far (But then, I also had no reason to actively look for it...). > I thought there was some discussion a while back about trying to persuade > the author to develop for wxWindows so he would only need to maintain a > single interface, but create output for a number of different target > platforms from a single source...

The answer is 'no'. **= Email 3 ==========================** Date: Mon, 10 Mar 2003 21:32:15 +0000 From: John Poltorak Subject: CVS help I'm trying to download the posix2 cvs tree from sourceforge but can't get the syntax right. Can someone tell me what I need to run? If I am on a local network, is there some way I need to redirect cvs through a proxy server or somesuch? -- John
