GRU Devlog 17-18 - coreutils, EGG and ideas
Last week I didn’t make devlog because was busy and haven’t done anything useful except mkdir for coreutils.
This week I started from try to make something in framebuffer but currently nothing, because I can’t even understand why my code can’t see size of my display. I think E will require making something like Elib for easier communicating with E (but it will be in very far future…)
Then I made echo and very simple ls for coreutils. I am going to add more flags to ls next week. This week I also have made simple irc bot in python, so I will try to make simple clone of suckless ii on C (i think name gic is now really good so if you have ideas please suggest them to me). Currently I don’t reallly understand how to work with sockets but I will try to do something.

GRU Devlog 16 - ormp and EGG
This week i was working on one more new project - ormp. It will be terminal multiplexor. Currently i am doing it in ncurses. For current time it is not working - can just handle input but not display it.
Also i have an idea for new projects - EGG (Extended/Exciting GRU GUI). I am planning some proj in this category - eggwm, eggterm, eggmenu and E. E would be a new display server. We will need to have it for Orion in future. Currently i am planning to do it or on fbdev or on DRM/KMS.
Also now yemu can be compiled with different compilers, -pedantic flag was added to makefile and all errors fixed.
And now our channels are bridged via matterbridge: irc on ~chat, irc on libera and xmpp muc.
