BTW my terminal emulator is moving along pretty well...

I'm posting this message from it now. On Windows! (It is talking to
my linux box over an ssh connection. It pipes to/from plink.exe to get
its data.)

Still a few bugs. In mutt, there's some lines too tall. I think the cursor
isn't erasing properly as it draws the line with a xor brush. And it feels
slow on Windows, tho that could be because I'm on an ssh link right now,
out of the house.

But one of the cool features is I implemented an xterm escape sequence... that
doesn't actually work in my xterm... that changes the cursor shape, and I
added a few lines to my .vimrc so the cursor changes in insert mode.

It kinda feels like gvim, but it is just plain vim over a simple ssh
connection. Boss.

Speaking of vim and bugs, if I scroll past long lines, that glitches too,
but eh it is usable.

So yeah, how exciting, now I'll start adding extensions, and be able to
use them right over ssh thanks to the Windows one compiling. (It also works
reasonably well over remote X - I have it pretty efficient, only redrawing
what it must, even using an XImage for true type fonts. But now I'll have all
the flexibility I might want.)
