I used XForms 10 years ago and it wasn't the same XForms. Not the same XForms but it has the exact same spelling and capitalization:

http://world.std.com/~xforms/

This library used to be pretty popular too. Wish they would have done a Google search before naming the project.

This is the Mozilla projects. Name clashes is what they do best! Expect this Mozilla XForms to be renamed to MForms later.

Heh heh, yeah, I just browsed around the old XForms project and it seems pretty dead these days. Now you have GTK, QT, etc so it's really no longer needed. It sure did make Xlib programming easy back in the day though. This message was edited Aug 11, 2004 8:32 AM
