http://bellard.org/jslinux/ Linux on a js virtual machine, bottleneck is download time. The c compiler is called tcc so you can build and run the hello world. No nano or pico so not sure what else you can do at present. |

I think it has Qemacs, another of Mr Bellard's projects. The guy is s wizard, he uses VGA cards to generate composite TV signal, tcc is his compiler (fast enough that you can call it with #!/usr/bin/tcc -run, and write C 'scripts'. So his ideas are different but pretty cool none the less. I wonder if X would be a possibility, so Chrome/Native -> Linux/JS -> X -> Firefox 4 -> Linux/JS -> (Head explodes). |

TCC says it can build the linux kernel, I wonder if the vm is setup to do so? |

Vi is apparently available for this. Though i have a hard time trying to use it though. |

Haha, amazing! it's got regular emacs in /usr/bin as well as qemacs. I just edited the hello.c source to say "charlie was here", then happily compiled and ran a.out! I'm imagining someone getting it to run X, and having a login item that opens the emulator up in a browser, creating infinite Linux. Cheers Charlie |
