Probable an ideal, but I've found AI help is often not as good as one would hope even for simple thing.
Recently worked on conversion of a small project from initrd boot to initramfs boot. Tried about 15 AI suggestion that all caused kernel segment faults. Eventually found solution found simple three line solution to avoid the kernel.
Did another AI test of what I had working in a C++ program. AI generated a solution using python, but it ran but didn't give correct results. Took making 6 suggestions and it eventually got code correct code, but it took 30 times more time to run.
Was looking around site for info on another issue. Had reread the Linux report on Porting Pegasus to Linux native, and agree that would be a major issue, since it uses a lot of external code, whereas I believe Mercury is code written by Mr. Harris directly. I've had a number cpp that I've ported to windows using ming compiler that required no or minor changes. Don't know if it would possible to build the mercury code with linux compiler. I used Mercury back on Novell 4.x server long ago (20+ years), so know it has worked with the Novell OS.
Have seen messages that some have run Mercury under Linux with Wine (I assume).
If Mecury code could be compile for native Linux?? Might be able to run a linux setup.
I run WinPMAIL under wine, but have it use the linux systems to handle the SSL (stunnel openssl) and use native 64 bit links.
Seems to upgrade the build on windows is going to require a lot of expensive windows tools.
Just an ideal.
