In fact, it seems that texstar's freecurve package is just BlueCurve with 
another name because if you install the SRPM, the source archive is called 
redhat-artwork.tgz or something like that. I'll download redhat official SRPM 
though, just to be sure.

Of course.  This is on my TODO.

I saw it too and I must admit I like cleaning code. I just hope I have enough 
skill to make it CLEAN. I'll try though.
