I have programmed a little Spellfire database-utility for unix-based machines and the
X-Window-System. The source is included in the
distribution, so that everyone can compile it on his/her favourite workstation.
It would be nice if you could set a link to the package which can be downloaded at
ftp://ftp.unix-ag.uni-kl.de/pub/people/kleinhen/spelldb-1.0.BETA1.tar.gz
Can someone please post this message to alt.(card?)games.spellfire? I can't get this group
on my university and even DejaNews doesn't have it. :(
Thanks
Michael
p.s. Here is the readme-file for the package:
---------------------------------------------------------
SpellDB 1.0 BETA 1
Copyright (c) 1998 Michael Kleinhenz <kleinhen@unix-ag.uni-kl.de>
This is the first beta release of the Spellfire database tool for unix-based machines. It
was written on 4 days in january 1998 using the help from various people:
Patrick "The seven tales of scanf" Koppen
Nils "Fun with pointers" Magnus
Oliver "No Problem!" Zendel
Included in the distribution is a database with full descriptions of the following
Spellfire sets:
1st Edition
2nd Edition
3rd Edition
4th Edition
1st Edition Chase plus all 1st dition Photo-Cards
Ravenloft
Dragonlance including Chases
Forgotten Realms including Chases
Artifacts including Chases
Powers including Chases
Underdark including Chases
Runes and Ruins including Chases
Birthright including Chases
Draconomicon including Chases
Night Stalkers including Chases
(coming soon) Dungeons! including Chases
The main goal for this project was the need for a simple spellfire database tool running
unter Linux. I recently used Derek Maxey's spellfire tool for windows and wanted something
more flexible running under my favorite system. The program runs under the terms of the
