Description Will Andrews 2000-03-08 13:10:01 UTC
New port for FOX (0.99.112).
Port accomodations:
	1) Removes unnecessary building (we only need
	   the library, not the examples!).
	2) Fixes htmldir configuration.
	3) Handles profiled libs properly, with a patch to
	   configure to make sure -fomit-frame-pointer is not
	   passed if the user wants profiled libs.
	4) Handles NO_SHM configure option properly.
	5) Allows future changing of SHLIB version numbers by
	   simple knobs in the port Makefile.
	6) USE_LIBTOOL to avoid *.la file installations.
	7) Extenively tested the above options on both 3.4
	   and especially 4.0 to make sure PLIST is correctly
	   specified in all cases.
	8) Passes portlint test.

FOX looks like a very useful C++ GUI toolkit. It may even be
a suitable replacement for Qt! Of course, that is just my
speculation (and speaking as someone with very little GUI
programming experience). ;-)

As a side note, this port was tested with my graphics/Mesa3
3.1 upgrade. Could somebody please upgrade that port soon? :)
