Even *I* can't remember all the different versions of X-Port that we
did, and I'm the one that built them! XPlite was, depending on which
version you got, typically a one-trick-pony - either package install only,
package export only, image import only, etc. I don't think we ever released
a lite version that moved text, but I could be wrong.
The reason we don't have a demo is complicated, and has changed over
time. Originally, it was because we couldn't come up with a way to limit
it's use so that it wasn't useful to people who needed it "just this once"
and have it still be useful as a demo. Now it's mainly because it takes
time to build in demo-expiration/limitation features, and I don't have the
time.
