that's an easy one, measure the width of the angels, add 1 unit of measurement to the needed area for each, measure the width of the pin head, then divide B by A+1!

Yeah...true, but add enough language support (such as packed binary byte arrays) js compilation, and you can write abstractions to model whatever you want.

Not too surprised it's possible. I remember hacking on a OS written entirely in java and a mips CPU in C; it had a pretty realistic VM/demand paging system as I recall and also supported networking between multiple running instances.

This is a PC emulator running Linux. This pc emulator is written in Javascript. You can use this with Jaws by turning off virtual cursor when typing and just reviewing the web page when not typing with virtual cursor on. I don't know how good it works with other screen reader. The guy also has his own tiny cc compiler that can also be used to run c as a shell which is pretty cool by doing #!/bin/tcc -r Which makes the compiler really cool. But anyway this is probably the most impressive bit of Javascript I have ever seen. http://bellard.org/jslinux Ken __________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind__________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind __________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind
