escargo 30 Jul 2003 - Somebody rudely deleted my comment about the wildopensource URLs no longer working (because the domain is unavailable). Are there any mirror sites for Android?

lv the comment was deleted after I tried the wildopensource url and it worked just fine. I figured that the comment was out of date and didnt want to leave people with the mistaken belief that there was a problem.


TkXext, TKReplay, and Hemang Lavana's rarely-maintained RecordnPlayTclTk [L2 ] have some of Android's capabilities.
