Hi all.
I've now come 100% Linux in my office in Doncaster. The only real problem
I have so far is that I'm missing a Winpopup client. We use Winpop
extensively at Ringways, which makes me a bit deaf.
I can send winpop's from the command-line using smbclient, and if I try hard,
I could knock up something using the 'message command = ....' in smb.conf
but 1) if someone's already invented the wheel why do it again, and 2) I've never
programmed in X before, and I've never done any event driven programming on
anything else except Win95/Delphi.
Every now and again, people suggest that we as a group develop an open source
project. If there is nothing out there already, can I propose this as a good small
first project.
