@amoroso beyond all expectations, I installed #Interlisp from source on #FreeBSD today.
I was doing a quick test of how much pain it would be to create a port package for #freebsd
Maiko built on the first try.
I got the runtime via git.
I got the prebuilt loadups.
After unpacking, I ran the (obsolete) startup script and…it just worked. Medley running under Wayland.
Was it. Supposed. To work?

@sgharms@techhub.social Glad you made it, it looks good. Maiko also has FreeBSD build scripts and works on Wayland (likely via xwayland) as it doesn't do anything too esoteric.

@sgharms@techhub.social @amoroso@fosstodon.org *I* certainly expect it to work. I test any changes I make to Maiko on (now) FreeBSD 14.2, though it's via remote display to XQuartz on my Mac. I'm glad to hear it's working with a Wayland desktop (as Paolo notes, probably through XWayland)
