    This is great, thanks for releasing your work. Very impressive.

    You may get some interest from others in the retrocomputing/permacomputing sphere if you implement an Uxn emulator; it is extremely simple and can run on very limited hardware. https://100r.co/site/uxn.html

    Vintage hardware would be a great host for Uxn programs, so I suspect this would generate some excitement.

      Thank you so much! Somehow I haven't heard about Uxn before, but it seems very cool and I'll definitely look into it.

        You’re welcome. You’d probably appreciate its focus on long-term stability; the authors wanted an environment for their software that would ensure code could stay frozen in a working state forever. The only thing that may need updates is the VM, as the host OS and userland will shift over time, but the VM is designed to be exceptionally easy to implement and maintain. That comes at the cost of some capabilities, but they were specifically aiming for simpler software, so it works out.

      Heh, the "small virtual machine" was NOT a lie! Is that less than 200 lines? Very nice!

      Now I feel like integrating that into various things....
