a Telnet Interface, under scripts/telnet... is there a reason because this interface is no longer available? what happened to it?
It has no maintainer & the jump from 1.2 to 2.0 means a lot of rewritte, so it does not work anymore.
To add to this. It has no maintainer because it was written using the CDK libraries which used to crash under have load. And cause a segmentation fault, and core dump. Which is less than ideal. I was going to rewrite using slang or something, but then the web based circulation module came along and that kept me busy bugfixing/adding features. And with the web based circulation module, there seemed to be less demand for a terminal interface. It actually will still work, even with 2.0 if the modules for it are installed. You'd have to get the modules out of the Attic in CVS as i think they have all been put there. If there is sufficient demand, im more than willing to work on a terminal interface. I'd be even more willing to help someone else who wanted to. Chris -- Chris Cormack Programmer 027 4500 789 Katipo Communications Ltd chris@katipo.co.nz www.katipo.co.nz
