The Last Psion | Alex<p>We have a working <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/plptools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>plptools</span></a> port for <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FreeBSD</span></a>!</p><p><a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>retrocomputing</span></a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/retrodev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>retrodev</span></a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/psion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>psion</span></a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/runbsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>runbsd</span></a></p>
The Last Psion | Alex<p>Current main projects:</p><ul><li><a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/plptools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>plptools</span></a>: Resurrecting old ports (<a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FreeBSD</span></a>, <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/NetBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NetBSD</span></a>) and working on a new port to <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/HaikuOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HaikuOS</span></a>. It's an opportunity to get more familiar with the code and maybe find bugs along the way.</li></ul><p>Upcoming projects:</p><ul><li><a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/CTRAN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CTRAN</span></a>: Still haven't started writing unit tests. Also, complete a full write-up of what it took to get the thing working.</li><li>Get my website running <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/GoHugo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GoHugo</span></a>.</li><li>Rebuild of DEATH, my Microserver gen8, probably with <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FreeBSD</span></a>. (Yes, it's been over a year since DEATH's RAID died.)</li><li>Pick another SIBO SDK tool to rewrite. (Probably EMAKE or RCOMP.)</li><li>Add a 17V boost converter to <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/PsiDrive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PsiDrive</span></a>.</li><li>Make <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/fefstool" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fefstool</span></a> create FEFS images. (I'm half-tempted to rewrite fefstool in Pascal to make it easier for me to finish.)</li></ul><p>You'll notice that some of these projects have been sitting for a while. I've struggled to get going with things this year. I'm hoping that working though plptools will give me some mental energy to get going with other things.</p>
The Last Psion | Alex<p>Some <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Psion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Psion</span></a> news! <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/plptools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>plptools</span></a>, the open source suite of programs for transferring files to and from <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/EPOC16" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EPOC16</span></a> and <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/EPOC32" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EPOC32</span></a> devices, has some additional maintainers: <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mstdn.fr/@captfab" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>captfab</span></a></span>, <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/@jbmorley" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>jbmorley</span></a></span> ... and me!</p><p>We're looking into how we can take the project into the future. We do have some ideas, but we're taking a considered approach to future development.</p><p>plptools currently runs on Linux and macOS (and possibly FreeBSD, NetBSD, Solaris, AIX and HP-UX, although these haven't been tested in a while).
