Re: WinCE port

["Michael V. Nikolaev" <mvn@...>]

I am not sure if Lua community is interested in this port because i didn't solved
Unicode problem, that is, i worked under PocketPC with Lua using char,
not wchar_t. So, the changes are minimal and can be found with grep,
searching for _WIN32_WCE in sources. I think, there are 10-15 changes.
As I remember, I used as a base EPOC port by Reuben Thomas, some patches,
and Lua 4.0 distribution.

Best Regards,
Michael
