> Three people reported that when they tried to compile with gcc, they got "illegal instruction". So, have to do something about it. No problem for me; I compile on computers with Intel i3 and Ryzen 5 CPU. Today booted up Easy on a much older computer, with an earlier-gen i5 CPU, with the devx SFS loaded, when ran "gcc --help" got that "illegal instruction". Hmmm.
> Good evening, hackers. Today's missive is more of a massive, in the sense that it's another presentation transcript-alike; these things always translate to many vertical pixels.In my defense, I hardly ever give a presentation twice, so not only do I miss out on the usual per-presentation cost amortization and on the incremental improvements of repetition, the more dire error is that whatever message I might have can only ever reach a subset of those that it might interest; here at least I can be more or less sure that if the presentation would interest someone, that they will find it.So for the time being I will try to share presentations here, in the spirit of, well, why the hell not.
> 20 May 2023 Unifont 15.0.02 is now available. This is a minor release, but its the last expected version to build TrueType fonts by default. Future releases will only build their OpenType equivalents. This version also adds Doxygen HTML and LaTeX-generated PDF documentation, in the "doxygen" top-level directory. Also, by request, the CJK double-width characters in the U+FF00..U+FFEF range have been revised to non-boldface variants. Download this release from GNU server mirrors at: https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/unifont/unifont-15.0.02/ or if that fails, https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/unifont/unifont-15.0.02/ or, as a last resort, ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/unifont/unifont-15.0.02/ These files are also available on the unifoundry.com website: https://unifoundry.com/pub/unifont/unifont-15.0.02/ Font files are in the subdirectory https://unifoundry.com/pub/unifont/unifont-15.0.02/font-builds/ A more detailed description of font changes is available at https://unifoundry.com/unifont/index.html and of utility program changes at http://unifoundry.com/unifont/unifont-utilities.html
