Re: [Gnumed-devel] talkback client

> I have no idea what it takes to make this work across platforms.
Not much, really. There is no platform-wide way to say "start
my e-mail client" even on UNIX that I know of. The sanest way
would be to have the user select the command to run to start
up the mail client when first using the talkback client.

> But a talkback client is GNUmed agnostic.
Yes and no. Since it feeds off of the GNUmed internal log
system it *is* specific to our code. OTOH calling up the
users' mail client is just a bit of glue code, say, 20-30
lines or so to be robust ? Nonetheless a good project.

> Are there any other sane talkback clients out there ?
Roundabout or whatever it's called that's used by Netscape and
others.
