Well, Lady Heather finally got off her ample ass and dug into the tao of X11
and all things Linuxy. The program is currently working well enough to
display log files, etc. Serial port initialization for non-blocking
asynchronous I/O needs to be completed. I have it working on a couple of
Ubuntu Mate boxes (X86 and Mac Mini power pc G4) and a Raspberry Pi 3. I need
to tweak the Pi color palette initialization code... the bastards defaulted it
to a 16 bit RGB 565 frame buffer...
One thing that will probably not be supported is sound file support... playing
.WAV files asynchronously does not seem to come naturally to Linux. Does
anybody know of a simple / lazy bastard way to play a sound file in the
background from a C/C++ program... I'd really like my GPS disciplined singing
clock to work.
