Hey, Seth.
A local guy in the Bay Area is currently working on related matters. He's
writing a MESA emulator. He's borrowed a couple manuals from me.
Is that Al Kossow? I've never written anything as low-level as an
emulator (I'm strictly
an applications guy), but this is the sort of thing I've become most
interested in recently. The Xerox stuff is enormously cool from a GUI
perspective, it makes me think I should at least do a Xerox Star GUI
theme for Gnome/GTK/Enlightenment as a start (I know, it's a different
machine, but I admire the look and feel).
I don't think any GUI today matches the functionality of the Star GUI.
