I have take some time to inspect how it could be go and have build a
testcase to see what kind of api is needed. Please note that I am
concentrated only to get a command line version initial running, so I've
removed the not needed gui stuff.  Currently I can't send in a patch for
this, because I have splitted the relating engine files into subdir and
build a static library to allow file including checks, although the binariy
and sources could be downloaded  here:

binary http://kde-cygwin.sf.net/snapshots/enginetest-0.0.1.exe.
source http://kde-cygwin.sf.net/snapshots/setup_new-0.0.1.tar.bz2

I have done the following steps to get a compiled exe.

Ok, I knew there would be some confusion concerning this.  Here's the
rational: The package "suite3270" is actually a super-package (Hmmm...
"Ssssuuuuuper-Package", I like the way that sounds :) which contains the
source for all of the emulators and provides a convenient way of

Applied. I think there's a bug in the MIDDLE enum handling though. I've
factored the code to be less redundant - please check...

There are still a few quirks - like the mirror selection page.

Lastly, do the vertical coords need adjusting to client coord ?

Sounds like you've gone too far too fast. I don't have the time to
review a non-delta set of changes. Particularly ones that throw away a
lot of code (the gui) that -must- be retained. 

> Any comments ?

Yes. I sketched out a fairly minimal development path to generate a
commandline setup that doesn't involve forking the engine code. You
haven't commented on the approach, rather you appear to have just
ignored it completely.

Shrug.

[ITP] tclcl - Ready for review [shared lib this time]

Original from http://otcl-tclcl.sourceforge.net/tclcl/

Description
===========
TclCL (Tcl with classes) is a Tcl/C++ interface used by Mash, vic, vat,
rtp_play, ns, and nam. It provides a layer of C++ glue over OTcl.

Changes from original request for review
========================================
1) I kludged the Win32-compatibility support into providing the 
Tcl_*FileHandler functionality when building on Cygwin.  This allows a 
link to the shared Tcl library.

Remember, the goal here is to get NS (the network simulator) working and
packaged for Cygwin.

APplied. Please submit patches with diff -up always - they are much
easier to read, and more robust at applying to altered source.

gcc-core installed accidently

Hallo,

Somoehow setup.exe installed the gcc source package gcc-core for me,
however I only wanted to install the binaries and it was also not
listed in the Up-To-Date section after I tried to uninstall the source
again.  What I did now was to explicit install gcc-core (the source
package) and then removed it with setup.exe again.

I cannot say how it happened, there is no other package listed which
requires gcc-core.

Any idea?
