FreeBSD astro : xearth

Set the root window to the image of earth

 Xearth sets the X root window to an image of the Earth, as
seen from your favorite vantage point in space,  correctly
shaded  for  the  current position of the Sun. By default,
xearth updates the displayed image every five minutes. The
time between updates can be changed with the -wait option.
Xearth  can  also  render  directly into PPM and GIF files
instead of drawing in the root window.

There are two additional marker files installed in
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xearth which specify the locations of
various FreeBSD people and places:

freebsd.committers.markers - FreeBSD committers
freebsd.submitters.markers - FreeBSD submitters
freebsd.ftp.markers - FreeBSD FTP mirrors

Author's mastersite seems to have disappeared.  The remaining mastersite is
his older one.  A google search didn't show anything.

Someone should adopt this popular port and mirror the distfile!

astro/xearth - inclusion of a 'submitters' file

	a new marker file for contributers who aren't blessed with
	commiter status (yet)

Feel free to backup if you think it's nonsense to have this file.

v. 1.26

Massive reorganization: get rid of freebsd.core.markers and the make glue
that was required for it; impose a strict style on committers.markers
where the committers are now sorted by longitude from east to west.  Make
my marker more accurate (should be less than 50 meters now); update Peter
Wemm's marker.  Make some of the markers align nicer.  Get rid of the
silly game the mid-Californian folks were playing.

Moved all CP to INSTALL_DATA and upheld the only into WRKDIR rule.

v. 1.24
date: 2000/10/03 05:39:04;  author: lioux;  state: Exp;  lines: +5 -4
The ${CP} command is inadequate for ports style. It was replaced by
${INSTALL_DATA}.

Besides, it is dependant on the user umask, for some systems this
means that it will install it with wrong permissions for most users.

For the same reason, I added ${CHMOD} 0444 to make sure the file
generated by merging marker files is correct.

Put jdp's entry in the proper place.

Scoot asami's entry's name over to be able to fit with similarly
located people.

Create a new file: freebsd.core_and_committers.markers.  I separated
the two more, so now I'm recombining them :)  This file is generated
upon installation from the freebsd.{core,committers}.markers files,
so it's a nice set-up now, I think!

Change pkg/DESCR to reflect what the marker files are now (overhaul
the last paragraph completely).

v. 1.21

Unleash all of these ports upon the people.  I no longer have any interest
in any of them, but will be happy to assign MAINTAINER to others and commit
updates for them.

Resurrect freebsd.core.markers, but update the entries with ones from
freebsd.committers.markers.  freebsd.committers.markers does not now
contain core members to prevent redundancy and clutter :)

v. 1.16
date: 1999/11/01 00:09:12;  author: green;  state: Exp;  lines: +1 -2
Completely deprecate freebsd.core.markers by removal.  This is in favor
of freebsd.committers.markers which is more up-to-date and includes
the core as well, thereby reducing the redundancy.

v. 1.15
date: 1999/10/25 06:21:08;  author: jkoshy;  state: Exp;  lines: +2 -1
Install new marker file 'freebsd.committers.markers' at install time.
Also, add the above file to package PLIST.

	Id->FreeBSD rename try 2.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.

v. 1.6

Split freebsd.markers to freebsd.core.markers (core team members) and
freebsd.ftp.markers (ftp sites).

The latter file is quite incomplete, I'd like to at least have one for
each country (preferably all of ftp.*.freebsd.org's) in there.  Many
entries are commented out because I either couldn't find out where the
site is or I couldn't find the name of the city on my map. ;)

v. 1.5

Upgrade to 1.0. There no need of the freebsd.h and -freebsd patch as
the -markerfile option now exists. A freebsd.markers is now supplied and
copied in ${PREFIX}/lib/X11.

Add CATEGORIES lines to a whole bunch of port Makefiles.  Some ports are in
multiple catagories - I'll expect the various MAINTAINERS to make further
adjustments (and add any KEYWORDS lines) themselves.

v. 1.2

Added "-freebsd" option, which will display important FreeBSD sites

FreeBSD people).  The stuff are in files/freebsd.h so people please
add more!
