Hi Xiaofan
Just wanted to let you know, that I successfully managed to compile
pikdev on Mac OS X some time ago. The only thing that needs Linux is
pkp with its parallel port support. You can comment out the code and
use it with serial programmers. Mac OS/Darwin is similar to FreeBSD,
so I think it should work.
Cheers,
Ezra.
