Yep, the "nice" administration scripts of SuSE Linux who reset my fine
hand-tuned configurations...

I join  the ScalingScrollView of OPENSTEP  4.2 and that  of MacOSX, in
addition to the copy I use  with GNUstep. It's almost identical to the
original from OPENSTEP. 


Note that the OPENSTEP Examples sources contain this "license" notice:

        You may freely copy, distribute and reuse the code in this example.
        NeXT disclaims any warranty of any kind, expressed or implied,
        as to its fitness for any particular use.


while the "same" MacOSX Examples sources contain:

Therefore, while we could put a copy of the MacOSX Examples on GNUstep
site and  have them compile and  run on GNUstep,  we cannot distribute
any modified copy.

But we  are free to  take the OPENSTEP  Examples, modify them  to work
correctly under  GNUstep and distribute the modified  version from the
GNUstep web site or CVS repository.

In any cases, since we're given the right to copy and distribute these
examples, it  may be  useful to have  them on  GNUstep web or  CVS for
reference. 

The  OPENSTEP AppKit  Examples weight  about 512k  compressed  and the
OPENSTEP Foundation Example about 30k compressed. I'll prepare and put
archives of them on my web site to let GNUstep webmasters take a copy.

Since  these  Examples are  freedomful  software,  I've  Cc'ed to  the
maillist.
