I am not sure if it will work in monochrome mode or BL1.

The siag.tgz package does not run on BL1 or BL3.


I looked at the siag home page and they also have a Slackware .tgz binary package (1.4MB for version 3.60) - no mention of which version libc6 is needed but probably a recent one.

Does BL2 have the dependencies if you install all the X packages? Perhaps Siag could be compiled for libc5. The latest version is 3.60 (source 1.58MB) but there are earlier versions. Version 0.98 source code is 149K.
Version 2.73 is 505KB.

I could not find information on what the earliest package includes - maybe just the wordprocessor? It is dated Dec 2002 so really might require libc6 to compile.

Steven, what is your opinion of siag as compared with Abiword?
Have you tried compiling it for libc5? uClibc?
Can it be used with mono or 4-bit color?
