Re: Hamster

What's wrong with GPL?  You're using gcc (which is GPL) so why couldn't 
the make be. Actually, you're using gnu make, right?

You're not the first to criticize this, but either I don't get the 
issue or there is some misconception here. I'm careful to exclude any 
GPL from LuaX but can still use GPL tools to build it..

Of course, Hamster being GPL is just my preliminary decision, and can 
be changed. "Just for fun" I wouldn't change it without a proper 
reasoning.
