Status of my load...

Hi,

The GTK port for EB-Lite will commence once I determine why GTK will not
work with Win98 and WinME... Since we use GTK for the windows port it
behooves us to get it right from the get go for EB-Lite.

In addition I have been trying to work on getting icq2000 into the mix
and figuring out why proxying does not work....

BTW, anyone have a clue what it takes to use the libproxy stuff and
proxy web pages? I.e.

	proxy: http://someproxy.com:8080
	destination: POST http://someother.com/foo.cgi HTTP/1.0 ...

Seems to not work for some reason.... It would be nice to get all
proxies working for all protocols.... BTW, perhaps the EB-Lite code
could proxy automagically?

So: Windows GTK issues, icq2000, GTK EB-lite port?, proxies... The list
goes ever on.

-Edward
