Cheryl makes a good point. I also don't recall the specific details, but I do recall one needs to edit one of the files, possible the Makefile, to get nfbtrans to compile on Linux. I think there's also an issue with filenames being in the wrong case, or something like that. I recall writing the current maintainer of nfbtrans about this. He was willing to fix it but he didn't have a Linux machine to work on. I suggested I could give him an account on mine, so that he could ssh on over and do the job. But, he didn't know what ssh was, and our conversation never went further. Bottom line is that he was willing, so maybe someone can take this up with him? Especially, if one of you is still hosting login via telnet, you might want to consider offering him an account for a few days. -- Janina Sajka, Director Technology Research and Development Governmental Relations Group American Foundation for the Blind (AFB) Email: janina at afb.net Phone: (202) 408-8175 Chair, Accessibility SIG Open Electronic Book Forum (OEBF) http://www.openebook.org
