Yes (well, copyrighted freeware under GPL) and yes.

I have a fork in github in case that's easier for you to contribute:

I took a look in there, as I used Davex quite a bit back in the
day...noticed that the commit history at SourceForge was missing in your
copy at GitHub.

I did a git svn clone from SourceForge to get the full history into a Git
repo, then used git format-patch and git am to add your GitHub changes. The
result is here, if you're interested:

https://gitlab.com/salfter/Davex

Basically, it merges Subversion and Git commit histories together.

Ah, well, since you have it there, I may as well fork and apply some of
the fixes I've done in my private branch.

https://github.com/mgcaret/Davex

I can send a pull request.

P.S. the docs on sourceforge say there is an xgetln2, there isn't. I
have an implementation but it's kind of ugly.

P.P.S. if you haven't checked out my Davex xcmds...

Awesome, both of you. I did my re-host before I got good at
transplanting from SF to github, retaining all history along the way.
I'm not sure the SF history is all that important, as it's really only
got my Apple /// stuff (along with my standard Ant-based build system),
so there's not a ton of value bringing the merge history along for the ride.
