Hmm ... I thing there are diffences between the programms. KMathTool and 
KMathCenter together ... no problem. Okay KMC is on a higher level than KMT, 
but they have got both the same aim. To give solutions to very special 
problems ... no training, no teaching.
As I understand Bruch, its a training-programm for fractions. And Kig or KGeo 
are to practice interactive geometry or (may be later :-) learn it.

OpenGL ... it is for 3D, isn't it? I'm not sure but I suppose its for 
graphics. What's about using SDL for this? Okay .... you don't need to 
explain it to me. I've got my specialist at home.

Hmm ... KmPlot a really nice app to plot functions. It can be used by pupils 
how are not yet confrontated with calculus (for germans: Analysis).
The plotter at KMC seems to be more powerful because of its ability to show 
derivatives.

To Christian Parpart!
I still think that there is no problem to stick our both apps together. Lets 
have a central widget with the possibility to choose the topic. Use a menu 
for this like I do, or something else (BTW ... how do you choose you 
different topics like Derivations, Analytic plotter, ...?).
For the selected topic an additional widget is opened which is working 
seperatly. Thus, each of us (both or more) can develop on his own. Only an 
entry at the main widget and the new classes need to be added to the project.

Lets call it KMathCenter .. I've got no problem to give up KMT for a bigger 
app.

Ähem ... well ... I don't say anything about things like that ;-)

I'm still very busy because of many test's and the marriage-planning for end 
of june. Hope to continue with KMT as soon as possible.

Birgit.
