Some of news of this alpha (http://www.volny.cz/kuchinka/files/alpha.readme) release:

  • several bug fixes
  • several enforcer hits in debugger removed
  • added support for static local variables

Good work, looks cool and interesting.

Any plans to port it to:
AmigaDE ??
AmigaOS4 ??

I Know, it's not finnished yet, I just couldn't help asking ;-)

Last Question, For us "inferior" type forced to use an emulator (WinUAE) has it been tested, does it work, any plans for optimisations.

Ok I'll stop now before you really hate me...
