Published elj-daily for the 19 Jan 2000 (realised I had been doing this for three years - I guess it has been worth it?)

• Look forward to reading the Larry Wall interview from Japan.

• Found Bryce's thoughts on Managing Developers In Net Projects quantified much of my own experiences (only wish I could write like that).

Dabbled with TinyPTC after seeing a comp.compilers.lcc posting (I use lcc-win32 as the backend C compiler for elj-win32).

Decided to hack a SmallEiffel interface to the TinyPTC api (three C functions - open, update, close) which resulted in posting a message to the SmallEiffel Mailing List - I used the C_InlineWithoutCurrent external feature and c_inline_c function as these are being used in the second phase of the eljwin32all project. It has been suggested that SDL would be a better approach than TinyPTC. Jan already has an Eiffel interface to SDL called jegl - must post this back to the SmallEiffel list (actually just found this old post)
