Hi folks! I'm proud to announce that my new Hylafax Client is now version 1.0, if someone's interested in a multiplatform client please try it and let me know what you think of it. The client is written using the Python language, its main features are: o Platform independece. It's been tested on Linux and Windows, but shoud work with little effort on mac too. I'm going to test on Mac myself in the near future. o Easy to change. Pyla is written in Python, so it should be really easy for a power user to modify and extend pyla's behaviour. o Easy to understand. Python language is quite simple to understand, even if you are not a programmer. If someone is interested in Hylafax Protocol you can easily take a look at pyla's sources, which are quite clear (but not well documented yet! ;-( ). o Configuration profiles. With Pyla you can setup many configuration profiles so you can share the program on a file server or in a multi-user environment. o Fax cover. Pyla is able to send faxcovers. In the package you can find a cover tmplate too. o Job management. With Pyla you can do simple job management, such as stopping, starting or altering a job. o Admin mode. Pyla can be configured with an Admin user so you can have access also on other people's jobs. o Fax printer support. Pyla is designed to be used in conjunction with a fax printer. In this way you can simply print from your favorite application and send a fax. On Unix you can use a simple simple script (sample included), on Windows you can use RedMon (http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/redmon/) or similar programs. o Ldap addressbook. Pyla can be configured to use Ldap directories to store fax numbers. Pyla is still in Beta stage so any bug report is welcome! Thank you. ____________________ HylaFAX(tm) Users Mailing List _______________________ To subscribe/unsubscribe, click http://lists.hylafax.org/cgi-bin/lsg2.cgi On UNIX: mail -s unsubscribe hylafax-users-request@hylafax.org < /dev/null *To learn about commercial HylaFAX(tm) support, mail sales@hylafax.org.*
