I am for various reasons not able to submit bugs and suggestions for Hugs
in any formal manner, other than reporting them to the hugs-bugs list. If
there are some questions though, just drop me an email.

Also, I think that the MacOS version that Pablo and I developed is
essentially dead, in view of the new MacOS X+, even though it still might
be important for some time to come in view of that MacOS pre-X only
constellations might still be in use. The compiler (Metrowerks CodeWarrior
Pro 5) and its windows interface we use are also out-of-date.

If you perceive that Hugs might be used on some non-UNIX like platforms
(like with cooperative multitasking, without shell, etc.), then it might be
important for you to integrate some the Mac code portions related to such
specific features.

If you want to integrate specific portions and do not understand what they
are good for, then contact me, and I will try to explain; I feel sure that
Pablo is available for that as well for the things he happened to develop.
