 * DL #1: NewsWatcher-X 2.2.3b2 Carbon, based on John Norstad's
   NewsWatcher 2.2.2 code.

 * DL #2: The NewsWatcher-X 2.2.3b2 source code (requires
   [CodeWarrior Pro 7][3]).

A French port of v2.2.3b2 was also available (by Jean-Pierre Kuypers),
so far I'm unable to locate a copy.

Compatibility
Architecture: PPC (Carbonized)

NewsWatcher-X runs under Mac OS X or Mac OS 9 with CarbonLib 1.0.4. or
later.

The screenshots #1 & 2 were sourced from the WA. Screenshot #2 shows
NWX running in a very early Mac OS X desktop. The remaining
screenshots were taken on my iBook G4, running Mac OS X 10.2.8 ? I
haven't as yet tested it on newer OSs or classic. It appears to run
nicely in 10.2.8

The NWX "About NewsWatcher" info screen displays the current version
number but the remainder displays the old NewsWatcher info unchanged
from 2.2.2 and isn't overly useful WRT to this newer X version.
