Looking for Free42/PocketPC beta testers
Message #1 Posted by Thomas Okken on 17 Mar 2006, 8:02 p.m.

Hi all,

I'm currently in the middle of development of a new PocketPC front-end for Free42. Based on my current rate of progress, I expect to have a mostly-functional version in two to three days, which may still be missing the printer emulation; a fully functional version should then follow in another day or two.
I usually try to all do my testing myself, but with the PocketPC version I'm in the unusual situation that the target platform is a machine I don't actually own. I do all testing and debugging on the Pocket PC 2003 Emulator, but that means running x86 code, while the "real" PPC version will of course be compiled for the ARM processor -- so there is a potential for problems.
If you would like to help me with this (or just get a sneak preview ;-) ), please contact me; you can use the MoHPC message feature, or contact me directly at the email address listed on my web site and in the "About" boxes of all current Free42 versions.

Thanks!

- Thomas
