Gmas

What's in here?

The main goal of the program is to be a work a like of the ever popular command more. The difference is, that it runs in a graphic scrolled window with some widgets for text search, etc.

So, you can load/view text files, also you can pipe to the program and it will display on the window, wich you can use to scroll back on.

It works with X Window using the free GTK+ (Gimp Toolkit) library.

Project Status

What works: Everything it's supposed to do.
What's missing: Man page. GNOME support.
