  13. Speaking of MiNT, has anyone tried to write a Unix-like IPC
  14. library, eg. for arbitrarily sized messages, shared memory
  15. functions etc.? Having considered this for a while, I couldn't
  16. come up with a way to 'wait for messages with IDs from 0 to XX'
  17. except with busy waiting... Will MiNT ever support this, or 
  18. has anyone else thought about it?
