ALCON:
I have been a Unix System Administrator for many years, and in fact
would be quite capable of testing, compiling, or generating object code on
my Intel Mac for the benefit of the community.
My understanding of the current Apple Development Kit is that you can
generate Intel based code on the PPC, whether it is "Universal" code for any
target processor (PPC or Intel), or Intel specific (and optimized) code that
is intended for only the Intel chip. Now I understand this is mostly written
in Python, anyway, but, just some food for thought here.
I saw where someone was speaking of a ".19" version (beta?) but given
the open source nature of the software, was surprised to not see it on the
download site.
One thing I had been working on was a decoder for reading the code plug
from an "ICF" file. Now that I see this software is here, I would be willing
to try to integrate that into Chirp such that we could at least read and for
sure try to shoot for writing "ICF" files compatible with the ICOM software
for Windows.
