Which server? I didn't find it. My MSN is asterite ĉe hotmail punkto com.

In http://www.dsource.org/projects/descent/wiki/WikiStart I added a 
section below, "How to help?". There you'll find the explantation for 
"most". Actually, the lexer and parser code are ported, but the source 
ranges for elements are still missing for a lot of elements, as well as 
the nice AST interfaces.

Sounds like an interesting project, but I don't like the idea of a 
plugin using command lines. But that's just me.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate. I suppose the little 
explanation on the dsource page won't suffice, but taking a look at 
which lines don't get covered by the tests gives a big hint on what to 
program next.
