w3m tiling wm about interim HOT 2 OPEN

Have you even tried using this project in the first place? There are a lot of roadblocks to resolve before you can even consider making another window manager or porting it to a different hardware platform:

• The system segfaults when trying to boot into graphical mode on macOS: #11
• The prebuilt RPi image isn't the same as the self-built one which fails to boot into graphical mode: #14
• There are GC issues that prevent you from using let (hence the many code examples that define global variables instead).
• There are graphical glitches when trying to use the existing window manager.
• Keyboard handling is inconsistent across different keyboard systems: #7 #13
• Hardware-dependent code is rather messy and hardcodes RPi2-specific constants for common actions like delay/sleep.
• The JIT compiler assumes a modern CPU with 32bit wide registers, so forget about microcontrollers.

Personally, the greatest value of this project to me is studying it and understanding how such a system can be built from relatively little code. Its overall quality is at the proof of concept stage. Expecting it to be reliable enough for use like an established OS (which have plenty tiling window managers) or easily portable to different hardware (like the microcontroller), yeah, no. I've contributed a few fixes here and there, but it's hard to improve it substantially without a full rewrite.

RPI Pico 2040 != Raspbery Pi 2
https://magpi.raspberrypi.org/articles/raspberry-pi-pico-microcontroller-specifications-features-and-rp2040

In my opinion, a system for a large computer will always be unpopular if it is written by one person (or a long time must pass). But today there is a great need for a system with graphics for a small microcontroller. On fpga like https://tomu.im/qomu.html or similar.

There are really few resources out there. And at the same time a system which will work for a week like linux on psion 5 on two AA batteries is what programmers are looking for.

Electronic prepers/survival users vill be happy.
