I also forgot to mention something else I found that we've had for like 4 or 5 years. http://interix-wgcc.sourceforge.net/index.html "wgcc is a cross-compiler tool primarily written for Microsoft's Interix. Its primary purpose is to produce native Windows binaries (internally using the Microsoft Tool chain), and to mimic the behaviour of the GNU compiler collection. This means that wgcc understands many of GCC's command line arguments, and in most cases delivers the same results as expected, sometimes manipulating the underlying tool's input and output" Somehow the idea of the gcc wrapper emulating mingw does not sound new to me... Maybe we should patent this shit ;) -- Steven Edwards "There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time has come." - Victor Hugo

Windows Unix Subsystem finally catches up to Wine

by Steven Edwards

Hi, This is just some interesting reading you guys might enjoy. It seems, the Unix subsystem will give you the ability to create a mixed application able to call Win32 and Unix functionality. In effect PSX becomes like wineserver and you have to wrap your win32 libs as posix libraries. (sound familure). http://blogs.msdn.com/shan/archive/2007/02/06/posix-code-and-win32-gui.aspx This is dated 2007 so its not really NEW news, but it is still interesting that Wine was able to create cross platform applications for like 10 years before Microsoft was able to with their posix subsystem. Thanks -- Steven Edwards "There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time has come." - Victor Hugo

Of course, there are other possible metric-compatible fonts under GPL, e.g. Linux Libertine http://linuxlibertine.sourceforge.net/ which looks more like Times than Liberation Serif does. But then we're getting into matters of taste :-) - d.
