I must apologize to you poor Lynx users who are stuck actually looking at these stupid links. These are just SpamBait and are invisible to all us GUI bastards. The idea is that robots trawling web sites for email addresses will get hung up trying to follow all these WPoison links. Sorry. -robin

The ReOS Manager is a relatively simple application, though many of the things it deals with may be unfamiliar to any who isn't a network administrator or orogrammer. ;-)

ReOS Manager Window

The main window of the Manager presents a heirarchical view of the available packages. The first column presents this list; the second gives the status of the binary component of the package, the third gives the status of the source component, the fourth the documentation component and the last gives the flavor of license under which the package is distributed.

ReOS Manager Menus

The Manager has only a few menus, each with only a few options, so once you're familiar with the concepts involved, navigating and using the applocation should hopefully not be difficult:

  • File
    • New Terminal
    • Quit
  • System
    • CVS Get
    • CVS Update
    • ReOS System:
