Comment at http://typographica.org/typeface-reviews/apple-color-emoji/ says that Apple had color fonts back in 1987, predating Color Emoji by over 20 years. Anyone confirm?

If you don't find it mentioned in the 21st century FAQ or on aux-penelope, then probably not.

None of the CSS has been loading for quite some time. ☹ Anybody know what happened?

I still think you're crazy for scripting in C shell. ;)

You can script in any shell language. Keep in mind, though, that A/UX's /bin/sh is very bad. I'm of the opinion that anyone using A/UX ought to move it to /bin/sh.orig, and make /bin/sh a symlink to /bin/ksh. And as scott said, there's an old version of Perl available too. In addition to the...

What's the "-v" option? I don't think I've heard of that one.

If you've got enough RAM, it won't be hitting swap (disk) for much of anything. About the only thing writing to disk should be your logs.

I've run X in a lot less than 48MB RAM before. Sure, you're not going to run any modern web browser in 48MB RAM, nor would you want to on that old a machine anyway, but still.

I've often wondered what kind of issues these are. I would think that unless you're dealing with assembly code, most of these concerns are abstracted out. Just recompile for the right target arch and you should be good, right?

Oh yeah: Maelstrom! How could I forget Maelstrom?

I know one could cross-compile, I just like working on the native platform. And I like m68k architecturally.

I spent HOURS with Warlords, Spectre VR, Barney Blaster, Sim City 2000, and this other game I can never remember the name of. You manned a "C"-shaped ship that sat atop a wireframe tunnel as these creepy-crawlies came toward you, and you had to blast them before they made it to the top to get...

How much RAM do you have? Do you have a different CD drive you could try?

I'd love to build an 8-way 68060 box and port NetBSD to it. Just so I'd have a really really fast box to make native builds of software for my 68k NetBSD Macs to run. Compiling on a CC is slooooow.

I know there are mailing lists for MW. If it's not immediately obvious, might save a lot of time just to ask.

Any update on that update? :)

May be a stupid question, but is the ssh daemon running? If the SE30 isn't listening, nothing's ever going to connect to it.

How did Greg's permission go? I imagine that since Kal is not really a revenue stream for them anymore, and never was for the scheme designers, they couldn't really care less, and thus were gracious enough to give permission. Darn nice of him to do so.

I completely agree that one does not need screen-blanking software these days, at least for the original purposes of saving energy and/or preventing deterioration of the screen. But as far as a security measure and/or being a fun diversion they are still relevant.

I loved my Star Trek AD collection. It was the first software I purchased (not including Word/Excel which came bundled with my first Mac in college). I keep thinking that it's too bad it's not possible to run those great screensavers on my Mac these days. But is it really so impossible? What...
