                     LHAFH (Linux Home Away From Home)

This is the most recent version of my hacked source for a collection of
functional working apps. With linux and GCC they provide me with all I need
for computers. The only two that are missing are Mozilla Firefox:
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/firefox/
and sylpheed email client:
http://sylpheed.sraoss.jp/en/

I came out of a MS Windows development environment so wanted functional
clones of what I was used to. They operate as close to the way I want them to
as I could get. See the source for final word on actual control keys. Used MS
Windows program style key control (easier to re-program the computer than
me). All of these programs are operational, used on a daily basis. May require
tuning of shell scripts to integrate smoothly. See fspanel-0.7e.tgz and
menu-3.02a.tgz for basics.

All of the filemanagers/archivers/browsers have right mouse button popup menus
which enable selection of the appropriate app to view/open the selected file.
They call the script 'Start' or 'SendTo' which invokes 'Start.menu' and the
appropriate apps. The shell script 'x' invokes the shell script 'mime_start',
which looks at the filename extension and calls the specified app.

Note: Some apps require either Gtk 1.2 or ncurses build environment. 
See listing below.

README
	This file.

	The only decent set of small widgets to come along. Required for the
	Xaw apps below.

debug-0.0.21.tgz
	240k linux clone of old DOS debug.com (with single line assembler). 
	For when you think slowly killing RMS for two weeks is too fast...

dillo-0.7.3mg.tgz
	300k GTK 1.2 based graphical web browser with tabs, able to embed itself,
	edx text editor and uxplor. Emulates Windows Multi-window app mode using
	local directories as a file picker.

e3u.tgz
	12k asm source wordstar text mode text editor. You can't get more optimal.

edx-1.08b.tgz
	33k xlib only wordstar clone programmers text editor. You don't like it? 
	Change it.

fm-4.1.tgz
	73k ncurses text mode file manager. Kind of a clone of the old DOS 'list' 
	of Vernon Buerg. Hacked to use guitar (above) to view archives.

fmx-4.1.tgz
	82k X text mode file manager. Xlib only version of the above fm-4.1 using
	my xcurses adaptation.

	archive files. GTK 1.2 based.

hexdump-1.0.tgz
	6k text mode hex-dump for when you really, really have to see what is in
	that file but cant stand another octal dump.

jwm-0.23y.tgz
	80k xlib only window manager. With builtin taskbar. Small, simple, clean 
	and _functional_.

karmen-0.9x.tgz
	40k xlib only window manager. So good it doesn't need a taskbar but can 
	work with fspanel (make sure you load fspanel before karmen!). Smaller,
	simple, clean and _functional_.

menu-3.02a.tgz
	8k xlib only popup menu program. For use with fspanel, dillo, uxplor, 
	txplor, retawq, guitar, karmen,...

	files listed size.

	109k xlib only dual pane tree/dir file manager. GUI without the bloat.

uxplor.26b.tgz
	55k GTK 1.2 dual pane tree/dir list view file manager. You know it makes
	sense.

xless-1.7.tgz
	32k Xaw X less. Less in a GUI.

xtop-1.1.2.1.tgz
	72k Xaw based top program. Don' need no steenking GTK or QT.
