AltME: Syllable

Does Syllable run under VirtualBox? If so is it able to access Virtual Box Shared storage?
Kaj
It runs under VB, but file sharing probably requires VB extensions, and those are not ported to Syllable
However, you can use networking file systems such as FTP and Windows networking. Those are a bit primitive under Syllable, but clients are available

Yes file sharing does require the Virtual Box extensions.  I use Virtual Box file sharing to run the Red tests under OS X, Windows and Ubuntu. It works well for me.
A few minutes after posting my question, I remembered that REBOL 2 doesn't run on Syllable so I couldn't easily extend my testing to Syllable.

Adrian provided a VB image, above:
Kaj
You could run the interpreter tests. That runs on Syllable, as red-core:

I'l try the VB image later. I would think that it would be better to cross-compile the tests for Syllable that way that we do for ARM.
Kaj
Yes, that would be even better. It's the same way I construct those downloads

Hi Kaj, no development for Syllable anymore?

Kaj
Not much, but some people occasionally do something on top of it
