[lojban-beginners] Re: Mac-compatible Logflash?

Well, after nearly tearing my hair out trying to get Bochs to compile
on my machine (just to get something resembling Windows to run on my
Mac (just to get DOS running...)), I gave up my hunt and went back to
square zero: Google.  I found a nifty little emulator called
Dosbox floating around out there that will let me run Logflash on my
Mac (though it does cost me most of my system's resources). 
However!

I took a class on Java programming last semester.  Just enough to
cover the more complex string-processing stuff, arrays, et
cetera.  I think the last two things we did in that class were
two-dimensional arrays and getting our programs to read from data files
(the latter was taught in a "Well, just trust us, the commands we told
you to copy do the job." kind of way).  So I still have eclipse
installed on my machine, just in case I ever wanted to do any random
Java along the way.

Heh.  If I had a PDA, I think Logflash would be the only thing I
used it for.  But then, if I had a PDA, I wouldn't be having this
problem, now would I?

Many people are pretty keen on SuperMemo -
http://www.lojban.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=Software&bl, but
unfortunately it doesn't appear to have a Macintosh version.

Alternatively, I could motivate myself to finishing LearnLojban - which
is written in Java and should run on a Mac with a bit of tweaking. At
the moment, you'll need to be a programmer to use it. Umm... it's hidden
on the Internet. I'll fix it up and release a newer version at some stage.

Also, I'd recommend using a PDA above using a laptop to learn from :-).
PDA's are pretty handy when you're sitting on a train and don't have a
book with you.
