Sorry about this. I got your emails and I meant to reply sooner. While I think that an ARM port would be an exciting (and demanding!) project, I just don't have the time to mentor anyone this year. (It looks like my name stayed on the list from last year.) Good luck!

No, the Real Programmer wants a "you asked for it, you got it" text editor -- complicated, cryptic, powerful, unforgiving, dangerous. ------------------------------------------- illumos-discuss Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/182180/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/182180/21175430-2e6923be Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=21175430&id_secret=21175430-6a77cda4 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
