Re: [Texmacs-dev] [TeXmacs] New binary versions under Linux

[Bill Page]

Denis,

Thank you. The new qt version works and it seems significantly faster
than the old X version.  I will be testing it with the new FriCAS
plugin over the next few days.

I noticed the name of the 2nd file has changed a little:

ftp://ftp.texmacs.org/TeXmacs/tmftp/generic/TeXmacs-1.99.1-8433_8437-i386-pc-linux-gnu-A.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.texmacs.org/TeXmacs/tmftp/generic/TeXmacs-1.99.1-8433_8437-i386-pc-linux-gnu-B.tar.gz

Much appreciated!

Bill.
