Re: Jifi
How hard would it be to integrate a serial console to your program as one of the tabs, like the "debug window" that pops up in IFI's program?
I know that I can "cat /dev/ttyS0" in Linux or "type COM1" in Windows, but it would be nice to have it integrated if possible.
From what I understand, it involves reading the serial port when not downloading, checking if it is ASCII (to avoid getting garbage data, i.e. line feeds or else values between 32 and 126), and displaying it in a text box.
Also, IFI has a useful checkbox to pause output... I would imagine this might also be relatively simple to add in.

Check out the space simulator called Vega Strike, modelled after the space simulator games Elite and Wing Commander. It's Open Source too!
If you have ever played Wing Commander, or especially Privateer, and had a feeling of nostalga derived from the you will enjoy these two Vega Strike mods: Privateer Gemini Gold and Privateer Remake!
I'm working on adding multiplayer support this year...
