I just put French, German, and Kanji interfaces for BackSpace 3.0 on nova.cc.purdue.edu in the /pub/next/submissions/BackSpaceLanguages.tar.Z file. Kanji requires 3.0J, and since I converted it to 3.0 from another nib myself, I'm sure it's hard to read whether you speak Japanese or not! enjoy, -sam -- Opinions expressed herein are not those of my employer. They're not even mine. They're probably wrong besides. How did they get in here, anyway?

How about providing a "fix" for the performance problems encountered in 3.0? Or maybe foreign language support for Help panels in standard NeXT applications and the spell-checker? Or the fix to improve drawing performance in InterfaceBuilder (try resizing a Button)? Or a "working" version of the Librarian (if such a thing exists)? What the hell is NeXT up to? Is there going to be a "bug" release for 3.0, or is NeXT not even considering this until AFTER the release of NeXTSTEP486 (assuming enough developers remain to work on 3.0 bugs, that is)? --Felix

I haven't tested it under 3.0, but it's worked for me under 2.1 for over a year now (has it been that long?). I would post it but I doubt that there is _that_ much interest? Not? Regards, Thor

BackSpace began as one of Sam's personal "fun" projects, not an official NeXT thing. Have you forgotten the history already? Please don't discourage him or he'll keep his cool stuff to himself. Just because he works for NeXT does not mean he works for them 24 hours a day. -- erik sowa (sowa@amdew.llnl.gov)
