I'm currently rather busy on making a Shoebox clone for Unix. Presently I'm in the stage where I'm trying to make an interlinear editor (using the Qt table widget). If and when finished it will run on all platforms supported by Python and KDE. (Actually, I've spend the whole day yesterday trying to get a new Suse installation to send email. I'm afraid I've bounced a few conlang messages in the process. Today I want to get Usenet news working and migrating everything over from Slackware - then development on Kura, the KDE linguistics toolbox will continue as scheduled.)
