: It's debatable how easy it
: would be to port to a more general purpose processor/OS, and in any case
: it doesn't have any support for a GUI (which presumably you want if you
: are intending to use it with NanoGUI or Microwindows).
I read through most of the source code last night. It's actually quite
well written, and (obviously) simple. It would easily port to a system
like Microwindows, but, as Alex says, you'd need to bring along Kaffe's
AWT or something similar in order to get something done graphically.
However, even if this were done, the JVM would start needed extending
because currently it's arrays are limited to 255, for instance.
However, I got excited about the LegoMindshare stuff, and I think
I'm going to go build a robot...

Greg
