Subject: ANN: lanoche - laptop or notebook report generator for HTML 0.7

Hi,
issue 0.7 of
lanoche - laptop or notebook hardware report in HTML
is available at http://tuxmobil.org/software.html
'lanoche' makes writing reports about Linux on different laptops a little
easier. It generates a hardware report about laptop specific features in
HTML. It is a small shell script, using programs like: `SuperProbe',
`free', `apm' and others to get hardware information.
Currently no hardware libraries are used, but you may find a short survey
of libraries and other hardware detection tools below.
The name LaNoChe is an acronym of "LAptop or NOtebook CHEck".
The program is not much sophisticated yet, but I hope it will
be a start in the right direction. A Debian/GNU Linux package
is also available at the download site an soon on the testing release.
Please note these URLs have moved from mobilix.org to tuxmobil.org because
of severe trademark trouble with Asterix and Obelix. A documentation of the
trademark case is at http://tuxmobil.org/mobilix_asterix.html
Werner
Changes:
o improved programm description
o removed the usage of SuperProbe use xviddetect instead
o use mktemp to generate temporary files
o config file moved to /etc/lanoche/, minor cleanups
o changed download URL from mobilix.org to tuxmobil.org,
because of trademark troubles

I think Java is the best language going today, which is to say, it's
the marginally acceptable one among the set of complete bagbiting
loser languages that we have to work with out here in the real world.
