Tao-dialog is part of tao-utils commands group. It assembles only tao-manager (simple file manager) and tao-dialog currently. Tao-dialog aims to work as zephyr/kdialog replacement, but it is currently not done. Maybe in future, I will add xmessage compatibility mode. Dialog compact mode rather never been supported, due dialog have options rather hard to implement using libgreattao.
Libgreattao have GUI and shell mode. Network mode must be re-implemented. Many feature, working in V2 version must be rewriten to V3 (3.0 version). But V2 is rather complicated and error-prone. LibgreattaoV3 uses libexslt internally.
Zephyr and KDialog modes of tao-dialog are partially implemented. You can do basic stuff like displaying yes/no dialog, info dialog and file dialogs. File dialogs are currently error-prone in libgreattaoV3 (sometimes causes crash, when dialog is destroyed), but I will work on this.

Good evening, hackers. Today's missive is more of a massive, in the sense that it's another presentation transcript-alike; these things always translate to many vertical pixels.
In my defense, I hardly ever give a presentation twice, so not only do I miss out on the usual per-presentation cost amortization and on the incremental improvements of repetition, the more dire error is that whatever message I might have can only ever reach a subset of those that it might interest; here at least I can be more or less sure that if the presentation would interest someone, that they will find it.
So for the time being I will try to share presentations here, in the spirit of, well, why the hell not.

More importantly, the strike lends mystery to whether TV will have much of a fall season at all. Some of the broadcast networks took strikingly different tacks in how they approach a future that is in shadows.
