I have compiled quite a few programs on the Ben, but generally through ssh from my desktop computer so I have a full keyboard and a larger window. I was able to compile almost all of gsl on the Ben as well as some benchmark programs. I wrote a few C programs, but the major development was done on my desktop, and then I compiled it on the Ben. Number crunching on the Ben is similar to a mid-1980's mainframe. I have used vim on the Ben and it works well within the screen limitations. I'm glad I have two of the Nanonotes. I think I was near the end of the orders from Sharism CC. Both are still working fine. It was sad that it didn't get more traction. I use it almost every day as a music player and as another back location for my various git repositories. git runs fine on it. > snip-------------------------- > > - SD card, I never got large SD cards to work, but the small ones were > > really > > adding to its usability. > I have had no problems with 32GB SD cards.
