Re: [PLUG] QuickTime for Linux (fwd)


Okay, apparantly this didnt' go through the first time so I'm sending it
again. Apologies if this ends up being a dupe.


There isn't a quicktime player for linux. However, a program called xanim
is capable of playing alot of .mov files. It wont play every quicktime
file you come across, but it'll play alot of them. xanim also plays alot
of mpeg and avi files as well. 

xanim is at http://xanim.va.pubnix.com/home.html
