Package: xflip
Version: 1.01-25
Severity: normal
Hello,
thanks for packaging xflip.
I tried to run it in my laptop, and all I can notice is a flicker on the
screen. I noticed some delay arguments which don't seem to change much.
I reckon things ought to be rewritten to think in terms of frames per
second, instead of delay between frames, though I would understand if
anyone able to do it had more important things to do in their todo list.
Mostly I want to document that the package seems rather useless (or even
more useless that its originally intended uselessness) on modern
hardware.
Ciao,
Enrico
