Re: [IAEP] [Sugar-devel] Sugar on Surface Pro (Microsoft Partnership)

2017-04-02 Thread Samuel Greenfeld
The short answer is yes; there are any number of ways (HTML app,
ActivePython .NET port, WSL, GTK for Windows, etc.) to port Sugar to
Windows.

Each has its own strengths and weaknesses.

The big question is if any of them are worth it.

Hey,
I understand that this is an April fool's joke but with introduction on
"Windows subsystem for Linux (WSL)"[1] I was wondering whether we might be
able to directly run sugar on Windows 10.

Someone here [2] even managed to get Unity and Xfce on WSL so I think it
might actually be possible to run Sugar.

Looking around, I found the following code online:

It doesn't seem to do much more than my previous port did [*], but it at
least compiles.
