Hello to the list, 

thanks for all your help in doing this Proof of Concept. Especially the 16
Bit Amiga Colors patch :) 

Now I'm going to create patches for the makefiles.

But there are a few questions, however: 

1.) Is there an guide on integrating new "Targets" into the Makefiles?
2.) I wan't to seperate this Port into 2 Development steps. The first step
is SDL Framebuffer Version - the second step is to Integrate the GUI into
MiNT properly.

But how should I integrate these 2 steps into the the Makefile? 
The Framebuffer target needed some tweaking. Mostly LDFLAGS needed to be
abjusted, and pkg-config invocations had to be replaced by:
freetype-config
xml2-config
curl-config

(because things like pkg-config libxml2 failed)

Should I patch the framebuffer target parts with something like: 

ifeq( $HOST), mint)
{
  ... do some specific stuff.... 
}  ?


I'm asking, because the framebuffer port is very generic and maybe someone
does not like such if(HOST) in this target...  ( At least it won't be that
much, probably 2 if's)

Then I would add a new target which is targeting GEM - the Atari User
Interface. I expect several places in the Makefiles that needs to be
extended for this target. But not right now, first I wan't to submit clean
patches for the framebuffer stuff...

Thanks for reading & greets,
Ole
