gfax is maintained at http://gfax.cowlug.org It is a Gtk# programme using either efax or hylafax as backends. Its functionality is rather basic. Unfortunately, the functionality allowing you to send a fax by choosing the gfax "printer" from the print dialogue of any GNOME based app is currently unavailable, since the code hasn't been adapted yet to the latest changes in the GNOME printing architecture. IIRC, George Farris, the maintainer of gfax intended to implement a GNOME independent solution by plugging straight into CUPS, thus sidelining the GNOME print architecure. If he succeeds with this plan, gfax would become available from the printing dialogue of any application, not only GNOME based ones.
