Haiku Gets Nvidia GPU Support (www.desktoponfire.com)

As explained by the developer, Nvidia recently published the source code of its kernel driver under the MIT license (called NVRM). This driver is remarkably portable, and its platform-independent part can be compiled for Haiku with relatively minimal effort, although it requires the implementation of OS-specific binding code to be actually usable.

I have developed an 'esoteric' programming language - Floating Point Tiny !

You may have seen "Tiny" in Haiku Depot. Floating Point Tiny is a big brother to Tiny - replacing integer line numbers with double sized floating point line numbers, and doing math and comparisons in a double width floating point stack.

Floating Point Tiny is an RPN based language. You can find the C source and the manual at:

To the kind person who put Tiny in the Depot for me - do you want to do it again?

The right shift key vs. the up arrow key on my Lenovo Ideapad have been placed unfortunately - I think they would be better swapped - When I go for shift I usually catch the up-arrow instead

Is there any help for this?

"Haiku" done as a neon sign - black background, colorful neon.

In case I can't attach it here is the link to Night Cafe where the background was created and is now stored.

Tun/Tap support is long overdue in Haiku, I'm excited to see where this leads!
