New interim snapshot of aqtools (formerly jstools) package

[Jay Sekora]

Hi. I've made an "interim snapshot" release, numbered 0.2002.01.26, of
the aqtools package (formerly known as jstools). aqtools is a suite
of applications, and some libraries they share. The most interesting
application is multi-mode editor with support for WYSIWYG generation of
HTML and PostScript, among other goodies. There are also a number of
small graphical utilities intended to be used from within shell scripts
or window-manager configuration files.

The newest application (still in the "works in progress" directory)
is an editor/browser for small simple databases like addressbooks and
CD catalogues. It's customizable by writing a config file for whatever
along those lines you want to use it for, but comes with a config file
to use it as an addressbook. Currently there's no documentation for
it, but once you've installed aqtools you can start it with the command
"aqdb ~/.addresses" (or specify any filename that ends in ".addresses").

More information is available at

So the aqtools package isn't dead, it's just resting. :-)

PS - I develop it on Linux and use it extensively on Solaris, but I
understand it mostly works on Windows. Don't know about Macintosh,
but I'd be happy to receive portability bug reports.
