It's possible a MorphOS port of this? It can be nice...

Just tell us when you've ported it, ok?

Jupp3, what do you mean? I only said a stuff that can be ported, not a "please port this" message...

Download sources and compile it. Using configure and make cant be too difficult to anyone.

Quick survival guide for beginners:

Step A:
Locate, download, and unpack the source code.

Step B:
Check if there is a file called configure. If not then delete sources and find something else.

Step C:

Run configure. That is, type "configure" in a shell, press enter and wait. Sometimes you must type "configure --host=powerpc" (--help gives list of options). If you cant figure it out then find something else.

Step D:

Run make. That is, type "make" in a shell, press enter and wait. If it fails then find something else.

Step E:

Done.

You said:

Maybe I missed the deeper meaning, but didn't you say at the beginning of the thread:

No, don't answer

It seems to be a very tough job to find programs that come with source. How much time do you spend in wading through the web digging out progs that come with source? Here is a hint: go to sourceforge.net, there are lots and lots of progs that come with source, now start posting them all here with link and ask if someone can port it.

Just had a quick look at the sources: only problem will be the endianess...

"//Note this code is little endian dependant and will need changing for big endian machines
"

"Apart from that" it seems portable...
