closest I have gotten is some patches for Wine's WordPad implementation.
Granted, it's less sexy than games, but you could learn more about C and Wine by building on that experience. There are lots of small and easy improvements that can be done get Wordpad up to par with native. Then come back next year to fix the games!
That i s a good idea. :)
I think I will go for it, unless anyone has objections to it.
Sounds good to me. Suggestion: spend a day or two filing bugs or enhancement requests now for a bunch of things you'd like to fix / improve in wordpad. (I might even suggest broadening your proposal to include notepad; maybe there are a couple low-hanging fruit there.) - Dan
