Re: freedomization task list version 0.3



Here is improved task list :

devel :
finite-state-machine-description-to-{C,perl,whatever} (anyone knows such free-or-not program?)

CKJV : (CKJV is all very non-free, should be changed)
a2ps-perl-ja

tex extensions :
french
abc2mtex
arabtex
lgrind
opustex
musixtex (+ -doc)

tools/frontends :
archie
xarchie
btoa
chktex

need investigation :
clustalw (anyone knows the free replacement?)
frotz
imgstar
mmm
rman
treetool

not-in-perl :
mp3asm
tgif

user programs : needed ones with similar look & feel
axe
nedit
pico
pine
 
patent problems :
whirlgif - make other-format-servicing alternative

semi-done :
html2latex (searching for testers, free version will be much more featuruful )
calctool   (tommorow will be searching for testers (7 Dec))
xearth     (went gifless)
lclint (+ -doc) (went GPL)

almost-done:
wwwtable

important mistake of packages' author :
xevil changed license and is not free. it was.
we should back to last free version

And number ONE :
free modular web browser
rationale:
because making the whole browser is very difficult we should make a set
of modules which will make good free browser and will also serve to another
tasks
list:
{http,ftp,gopher,whatever}2pipe (there are some already)

html preprocessor - making browser will be much easier if structure is simplified
without losing data (see tasklist:devel for what will be needed for good one)

mail client in which To and Subject can be run by command line (there are plenty of such programs)
user interface - easy
html displayer - there are already such ones but w/o frames
java applets - (kaffe ?)
java scripts - who has any idea
mime support - easy

Im especially interested in html preprocessor.
