Although the latest versions of the emulator are a real pain to get working, they don't compile using GCC 2.95 anymore and require GCC 3.x, as that means it also requires fltk compiled using GCC 3.x it can't easily be updated in ports (I got it working myself and emailed it to the port maintainer, but I don't see how he can get it working properly until we switch to GCC 3.x in the base system) :( -- Simon Dick simond@irrelevant.org "Why do I get this urge to go bowling everytime I see Tux?"
