One point. Do you remember any my previous atack against somebody who
dislike ARAnyM? But I remember some "not discussions" about ARAnyM :-(

JIT compiler... Look at speed of IDE and hostfs under JIT compiler. You
see how it is slower.
But I still prefer IDE emulation.

OKi, dou you know some possibility? Send it to ARAnyM's developer list,
please. Or we can look at the thread you mean.

Really is it so slower? On my machine not. X-mas comming, so the time to
look at ARAnyM for me.

Btw., Mr. Pursell, there is one small problem with MacOS X. Nobody from
core ARAnyM team has access to MacOS X. There are some people on our MLs
which experiments with ARAnyM on MacOS X, did you ask for help there? I
don't remember...

And btw., Mr. Skancke, I'm happy that you discuss now. My mistake, sorry.

Best regards,

P.S.: Now discussion seems much better. It isn't a good start of
discussion when you say on the begin No, no, no, no, no...
