By the same logic I can also put a crappy emulator in a dll and make notepad load it via a hook. Linux on notepad.exe. should I make that into a HN post too?

Now that I mention it, I think someone already posted that on HN...



It's not Linux, but here's DOOM in Notepad:

Ditto with a ZMachine being called from a VIM plugin...

A native one would be emulating a DOS 8086 PC with PostScript (some people already did a ZMachine emulator).


Coulda shoulda woulda…


We've seen better on HN. Much better.


We've also seen worse. Much much worse.
