    Good progress today on miware (my DOS for #ilo). I have a working, though very spartan, line editor now, and adapted my #uxnmin for ilo to run under it.

I&amp;#39;ve stopped for an #espresso and a #matcha. While I sit at the cafe, I&amp;#39;m making a few UI related edits to the #gopher client for #ilo on the x4pro. This client is working prety well for text content. I might add limited image support (using the icn format from uxn), but it&amp;#39;s basically done from a f...

    Taking a day (or maybe a few?) off of programming to rest my hands.
