Thanks for bringing it to my attention - it was working, but not always :)
Fixed in cvs.

interesting, althou I can't really make anything out of it. If you will
manage to reproduce it - let me know

ascp as it is right now, is merely a prototype - I tryed to build
something using GUI tool supplied with FLTK, to see how viable it is.
I liked what I got out of it, so now some real code needs to be put in.
There is one tool in src/ascp - ascolor
Its a simple GUI to visually generate colorschemes, and it works.

All the modules that do not compile needs to be converted to use new
code in libAfterStep/libAfterConf/libAfterImage. In rush to release beta
version, I've only done three most crucial ones. I'll do the rest as
time allows ( or if patches comes in :).

Code freeze for 2.0 beta 1 is August 1st ( this year :)
2.0 beta 1 release date is August 10th.
My feeling is that its solid enough so that ppl can go ahead and try it out.
BTW if anyone with designer background/artistic nature has any
suggestions in regards to default colorschemes supplied with AS - I'll
be glad to hear expert opinions.
Thanks for all the bug reports :)
