Juliusz,

Have you tried the patchtracker I put up at
http://butter.homeunix.net/darcs-patches/
yet?   From what you just said, I take it you wouldn't see it as a
replacement for
your current system which doesn't need a web browser.  But do you find
any use in
it?  As I said in a previous email, as long as some people find it
useful I'm willing
to leave it up, but if it helps you, all the better.

If I do decide to keep it up, it'll need some tweaking.  But it is
written in Perl and I'm
going to avoid fixing it up for as long as possible.  Sometimes, if I
look at Perl directly,
I throw up on my shoes.
