Re: [Evolution] text-mode shell anyone?

[Not Zed <notzed ximian com>]

I started writing a text mode mailer, but that wasn't going to use any
corba or bonobo or whatever, and i only spent a day on it anyway.

Using the component system will give you very little benefit in a text
mode environment.  You can't invoke component 'controls' as they stand
currently as they are all X-windows widgets.

You can still query the addressbook and calendar via corba though, which
is useful for a text mode client.
