Hi,

I am the new maintainer of the xconq package for debian.
Here are some reports on what i noticed during packaging
and on what i have changed to the original.


I think the label "Connect" in the initial tkconq.tcl
widget is irritating: You need to press connect to host 
a game.
In the latest debian package i changed the label to 
"Network" as the response to [1], which is more suitable 
in my opinion.

I also added "automatic scrolling functionality" on new 
messages to the chat widget in tkconq.tcl, but i think 
that is now already fixed in recent CVS. If not i could 
send you a patch.

I have also removed all "-font $bigfont" parameters in 
tkconq.tcl because they produce only unreadable 
characters in conclusion with tcl/tk 8.3 and xfs on my 
debian sid box (but not on my debian woody box). Maybe a 
broken X configuration might be the problem, but i 
don't know. If i compile the game against tcl/tk 8.0 
the font looks good.

There is also a bug report at [2] that units get 
stucked, but i think that the problem is known 
and was already discussed.
