Hi,

I have just (bravely) switched over from a "fat" Linux system with a
whole bunch of neat stuff, including the many Tk apps, and Moo-tif ---
to FreeBSD (2.1.0 - 2CD set).  I know there is a way to run Linux
binaries on a BSD machine (and I'll RTFM), BUT my question is this:
has _anyone_ tried and succeeded using Moo-tif for Linux on a BSD
system.  I know there is a port available for BSD, but I'd rather use
my existing copy in the meantime.

Thanks for your input (argv != 0)!

Sincerely,

Nate Patwardhan
