I believe the QL can already be emulated on the Raspberry Pi by way of the MESS emulator. There was talk of running SMSQ a while back but I'm not sure that was ever achieved. However Trump card + memory and Sandy SuperDisk emulation was implemented.

Hi Bryan,

Unfortunately I don't have a Pi. I'm araid, SMSQmulator would be pretty slow there, anyway....

Low speed doesn't worry me Wolfgang,
ultra-low probably will. I had the chance to try a very early version of Wolfgang's SMSQmulator on an ARM board and it wasn't exactly fun. ARM is too slow and Java is not optimized for the ARM like it is for the x86.
Why don't you try uqlx?

Yes, Tobias, uqlx is certainly my intended route at present; I think that it has been de-bugged now. But an alternative route may help get the QL wider exposure in the young R-pi community. As Oracle are presenting Java on the R-pi perhaps they'll tweak it to work well. They obviously see that having it on R-pi will help young developers get a feel for writing Java stuff.
