So, those are your immediate tasks ? Anything I can help out?
Depends, what can you do? Are you good with USB stacks? Network related code?
Well, I I don't know...I did some socket stuff recently but I am not really into networks. I have no clue how USBworks, to be honest. OTHO, doing CCCC/C++ since 15 years, I guess Ihave no problem challanging new frontiers ;) The only thing is, I don't know if I have much time.
Good to know ;)
I have no access to that site. If someone would like to add me, go ahead.
Just checked my list of names, i don't have your nickname to add you, so maybe you should tell that first ;)
Use juergen ;) That's easy.
Done, see private mail
The csh & tsch ports we currently have require alot of work to make them, well, work, so those are a dead end, when the time comes we'll need to revisit this issue, but for now it's best we focus on tasks we can use on the short term.
I still want to look into it... I have started it, so at least I'd like to get it going. Helps me to understand DOS internals. And I dont know .. Following the tcsh/fork discussion ... using csh, collecting all globals into a (what I call) context and use the parser from csh + adding pthreads and make the code reentrant and threadsave would result in a new shell (this is in fact a rewrite, but I don't have to re-invent the wheel). I'll do that...I cannot guarantee anything, but maybe this will be of any use for you... even if you go another route.
We do need csh, but not in the near future, you now have access to dev.amigaopenoffice org, i'll let you in charge of the csh/tcsh part, can you make an estimate of the work involved by 4 Februari? (Not the time needed, but what steps need to be taken, what you will need to make it work, those things ;)
BTW:I looked into the other mail (what was his name, Andre Siegel?), IMO it seems this is a complete packages with all the tools involved -> much more than we really need. I'll look into this to get a better idea what is really needed. And if I have a better picture about the module structure I can tell you what I can do... Or you tell me, what you need, and I tell you if I can do that ;)
You should contact SieGel talk this over with him, to avoid double work.
