I'm always looking for someone to help port KEGS to other platforms.
KEGS is a fully-functional //gs emulator for X-windows, running on HP,
Sun, and Linux Unix machines.  It's also been ported to OS/2.
It's also much more accurate than XGS or Bernie/Sweet 16.  It doesn't
have a whizzy user interface, but then my Apple //e didn't either...

I would think porting KEGS to Windows would be fairly straightforward
for anyone with Windows programming experience.  All the X-windows
stuff is in one file, and the rest of KEGS is fairly machine
independent (well, it assumes some POSIX stuff).

All the source is always available at (along with porting tips to
other systems): http://www.crosswinds.net/san-jose/~kentd/kegs/
