If interested in enhanced terminals, please take a look at DomTerm ( https://domterm.org ). It too optionally uses Tauri/Wry, though it can also also Electron, Qt, or a plain web-browser. You can embed images and rich text

To toot my own horn: The oldest still-active compiler-based language on the Java platform, besides Java, is as far as I know Kawa ( https://gnu.org/software/kawa ). It started Summer 1996, and is still actively maintain

Thanks for the suggestions for Crestron NVX and AV Pro Edge. I did some browsing and saved the recommendations. They seem like possible (if expensive) solutions. Right now I'm mostly looking ahead. We're doing a major remodel and

A section isn't large for a farming operation. It's only a square mile or 640 acres. Drive through the Central Valley of California and you'll pass through many much larger parcels. My husband and I own a section not far from
