123elf VS glow

According to https://github.com/taviso/123elf/issues/105 there is no real chance for getting a FOSS license here.

We all have weird interest, it's the long tail.

Magic happens when you find someone with the same weird interest: emulation brings innovation through iterations!

Maybe someday I'll find someone interested in running Excel through wine rendering in Sixels within a terminal :)

And before you ask, yes I've enjoyed way too much reading about https://github.com/taviso/123elf and the history behind it!

123 was indeed ported to UNIX, I have that working as well! https://github.com/taviso/123elf

(Although it was more likely procalc - a popular low-end lotus clone)

I'm also working on porting dBase IV, another popular package from the era :)

Check out my quick start guide, it's for R3 but is mostly applicable to R2.

To get started, install Mods and check out some of the examples below. Since Mods has built-in Markdown formatting, you may also want to grab Glow to give the output some pizzazz.

I recently started using markdown in neovim (with an LSP) along with https://github.com/charmbracelet/glow to view markdown / navigate. Does everything I used to use Obsidian for minus the links / graph functionality which I don't really need and it's pretty snappy on an old Lenovo. Very customizable as well.

Yup, those seem to be the key challenges. I've been making good progress on them, but there's plenty more work to do!

On the topic of "AI-generated PRs", I used my tool to file a PR to the `glow` CLI tool. I don't know the go language, so I had aider make the changes to glow.

I've also been able solve a couple of github issues that were file by users by just pasting the issue into my tool... it fixed itself. Links below:

I'm personally also quite fond of Glow. I use it pretty much every time I touch a markdown file.

Nice idea! I’m excited to check it out. I write a lot of docs in Markdown and this could be a great way to browse them.

Out of curiosity, have you seen glow[0]?

Charm's Glow is a joy to use, a good example of having the Charm's Bubbletea usage - but from the code perspective, it's a bit difficult to navigate as many code paths are put in the same package

thanks! Yeah all the markdown is handled through glow, which is one fairly awesome tool.
