Just a plug, apparently the new version of Nero Burning ROM (30-day demo
available) will happily convert your MPEG-1 videos into VCD format (1/2
SIF, I think) and burn them for use in most recent DVD players.
In case you still don't trust venti. ;)

This video only increased my appetite for the "REAL" thing ;-)

Has anyone tried compiling the Rakitzis/Goodwin version of rc under
U/WIN with the GNU dev toolchain?
I've read that U/WIN is much happier about compiling random UNIX source
out of the box than Cygwin, but I have to admit that I haven't tried it
(yet) under either. I'm just fishing for some wholeheartedly subjective
opinions.

I find it's a little too good.
FINGERS: "lc"
MOUTH: "Damn!"
I'm also thinking of rewriting some of the little tools I use so they
work relatively well whether I'm on Linux or Windows or Plan 9 (much
like Dan missing 'find') and I don't care for bash as much as I used to.
I like rxvt on Windows (when I'm stuck on Windows) because X-style
copy & paste is hard for me to unlearn (I always want to stop and read
the menus in rio/9term, and I reflexively try to use the history when
I'm busy), and it just seems natural to want to replace bash with rc so
I can just keep copying & pasting my way through life.
(No original thought here. Move along.)

My experience a couple of years ago with U/Win and Cygwin was that
U/Win smoothed over the differences of the environments better. My
conclusion is based on a couple of small projects.
9pm is excellent if you're looking for a Plan9 environment on windows;
but you probably knew that.
