XForms is now available for NetBSD

[T.C. Zhao]

Thanks to al...@phred.org, XForms is now available for i386/NetBSD.

What is XForms
---------------
XForms is a graphical user interface toolkit and builder based on Xlib
for X Window Systems. XForms is a portable and efficient C library
that can be used in both C and C++ programs. The library works in
all visuals and all depths (1-24) and comes with a rich set of
objects such as buttons, browsers, sliders, and menus integrated into
an elegant event/object callback execution model that allows fast and easy
construction of X-applications.

The Forms Library is very intuitive and simple to use. It is by
far the easiest-to-learn and easiest-to-use system for X GUI
development. You can start writing XForms based programs within an
hour once you go though the first five pages of the documentation
and have run and read a couple of the demos. Actually, you don't
have to write any code, the bundled GUI builder will do it for you.

XForms comes bundled with
- Precompiled library and header files for the following platforms:
i386/Linux
i386/FreeBSD
i386/NetBSD
SUN (SunOS and Solaris)
SGI
HP/HP-UX
IBM/RS6000
DecAlpha/OSF
DecStation/Ultrix
Convex
Cray-C90
Cray-YMP

- Source code for 50+ demonstration programs;
- Precompiled fdesign, an advanced interactive GUI builder that can
be used to design dialogues in a WYSIWYG way and to output the
corresponding C code for you.
- ~200 pages of documentation (tutorial and reference);
