Looking to grab a copy of whiteBOX? Good for you. I think you will be pleased. I have put in a fair effort on trying to get everything running nicely for everybody, but unfortunately, with all of the various distro's/OSes (and configurations associated), there is the occaisional hiccup.

If you do have a problem, first check the bug tracker and enter a bug, then drop me an email if you want. I may take a little while in getting back to you, usually within a couple of days unless I have problems. I check the bug tracker at least once a week (sometimes more frequently) so I will get your message eventually :)

Note: I have removed the download for version 0.4.2. It was well and truly wrecked. It seems that glade is not compatable with version 0.11.X of gettext and this has been causing no end of problems with whiteBOX. Thus, I have removed gettext support from version 0.5 until its sorted out or until I switch to GTK+2. I would like to hear your suggestions on this matter so drop me a line. You can read more here if you are interested or check out the glade mailing list.

The latest version is: version 0.5
