Hi,

        I sent nando an initial embryonicGNU/Linux port. Generates makefiles
dynamically, almost everything compiles. More when I have another five
minutes.

Initial impressions:

        I am unhappy about the heavy use of templates and the stl. Its going to
bite you on many platforms (guys there is a whole world out there apart from
Macs and Windows machines...) and the bloat is going to be considerable.

        Is the license compatible with the GPL? Has someone verified with Richard?

            We need to talk seriously about the architecture sometime soon.

        Other than that I think you guys have contributed a very nice start code
base. Thank you!

Got to run ...
