No. You need integers (and pointers) to be at least 32 bits wide. And you also need about 90Mb of RAM for the initial malloc()s. Historical 8-bit and 16-bit CPUs will not work. A modern fridge might, though. :) — Taco Hoekwater E: t...@bittext.nl genderfluid (all pronouns) ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / https://mailman.ntg.nl/mailman3/lists/ntg-context.ntg.nl webpage : https://www.pragma-ade.nl / https://context.aanhet.net (mirror) archive : https://github.com/contextgarden/context wiki : https://wiki.contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
