    Einstein Would Be Magnificent

    I wrote DyneE5 when Einsten came out closed source and go pretty far (memory initialization, first dialog box on screen). When Paul opened the source to Einstein, I took my knowledge and combined my app with Newt/0, creating DyneTK, an IDE to develop Newton applications. I expanded Newt/0 to...

    Newt/0 is great. It is a fully working Newton Script interpreter and compiler. Newton Script however is only a tiny part of Newton OS. Gnuton has been abandoned man years ago.

    Exophase: yes, you are right, it was the multiplication function. The last time I checked that part of the code was tree years ago. Sure, the JIT could be greatly improved. Paul did a fantastic job emulating the undocumented hardware and drivers of the Newton. The JIT is AFAIK a collection of...

    Einstein Would Be Magnificent

    The Newton 2100 (which is the only one worth emulating) runs at 162 MHz. Emulating on my 2GHz Macbook Pro runs about half speed (but that's quite hard to say). The emulated commands are generated using #defines that use #defines, an amazing grid that generates every possible ARM command. The ARM...

    Um, I am afraid I got my numbers wrong. Emulation speed *was* 200:1. JIT raise the bar to 40:1 IIRC. It is usable on my Macbook Pro.

    Hi. I have ported Einstein to MSWindows during a Newton Show in Tokyo a few years ago. I know the code pretty well. If you are interested, I can give y'all in depth information. With a team of three or four dedicated developers, we could get something great going! Please read on... Emulating...
