Still pretends the terminal | is attached through a serial port, but it's emulated in the | app. | | It's a shame Apple doesn't make the Terminal.app engine | available to developers. | smoldesu wrote: | >It's a shame Apple doesn't make the Terminal.app engine | available to developers. | | _Sigh._ Add it to the pile of "things Apple really ought to | open source just to give back to the community that they used | to build the worlds most successful business from" | swiley wrote: | Remember that next time someone argues the GPL restricts | their freedom. | m463 wrote: | PIP README.TXT=CON: | mfollert wrote: | It's called macOS now. | rbanffy wrote: | The project started 7 years ago. | [deleted] | tyingq wrote: | Looks like it emulates a Z80 with 64k and selectable Osbourne, | ADM/3A, Hazeltine, or VT52 screen output. | williesleg wrote: | Finally some real software.
