 co> Hey all, and MeaTLoTioN in particular, since he showed it to me first.

KDX, not PDX =)
I know, it really was a neat full featured bit of software.

 co> Alas, the company behind the software is dead, and it's timelocked after

 co> one to talk to.

I have a registration certificate in the file areas on the server, just look 
for the KDX directory and you'll see it. Will make it full unlocked version.

 co> It would have been cool to see what could have come up with such
 co> software. I assume similar stuff that we have now, since it's all
 co> ubiquitous just with different protocols. But to play around and having
 co> a cool new toy with a cool Qt (I assume?) UI was a nice refresher. I
 co> won't be using it. As it's a GUI that was for Windows only, only managed
 co> to worked it on Linux.

I wished that it was open sourced so it could have been continued, it was so 
small and efficient, putting even today's software to shame in many ways no 
doubt.

 co> Just wanted to put the stuff we had talked about in a chat in here for
 co> others to see.

Thanks for putting the post up, it'll help others, and good to keep the history
