I have ported Dali Clock to the Palm Pre.
Truly, this program will last forever. If I have anything to say about it.
It's a little slow. It is, in fact, a bit slower than the PalmOS "Classic" port. And, for that matter, the original Xerox Alto version. Why, you may ask?
Because this port is written entirely in Javascript.
frsrs.
Let's take a moment to ponder this version and the Alto version, and just how many wasted instructions, layers of abstraction, frameworks, toolkits and outright cruft have gotten between the algorithm and the frame buffer in the intervening twenty-seven years. This program makes my phone hot. Hot, I tell you.
Oh. The huge manatee.
