Already fixed (in CVS). Awkward bug/error :(
Next release.

I will fix this to work with the autotools __AND__ "all" platforms. 
Next release.

You want a scriptable Xnee? 

I think you can either:

 1) tweak stdin/stdout in bash so that you can 
    write input to xnee without having to launch a new Xnee
    for every command

 2) append input to a file and let tail read from that file and
    feed xnee the new rows.
    e.g 
       move_cursor()
       {
         echo "0,6,[mode stuff is needed here]" > /tmp/xnee_tmp
       }

       # hey, use this function only once
       xnee_reader()
       {
         touch /tmp/xnee_tmp
         tail -f /tmp/xnee_tmp | xnee --replay &
       }
     

  3) wait for the guile or python support to come

Note: 1 and 2 is what popped in to my mind when reading your mail. I
can't guarantee that they will work.
