RA2 I checked the site. The programmer is German. A fellow by the name of Goetz. It seems there is not a single file to download like a lot of TCL/TK apps but there are two: a client and a server. Assembling this app for Windows seems to be a little complicated. Does anyone have a clue about how this is done? Anyone has ever seen this program for Windows in one single file? Anyone has ever tried it and can give us some feedback? Thanks.
RS As client and server are distinct processes, to get two scripts makes sense to me - just get both, start both, and see whether the client connects to the server.
RA2 I'll try that and I'll report on the app afterwards. Danke Richard!
SEH 2005/02/15 -- If someone could manage to make the Minkowsy client compatible with the Kolab server, it would be a nice visibility-enhancing win for Tcl, since interest in Kolab is building but there is a shortage of Kolab clients.
