  WTF are you smoking?  You don't need any additional "runtimes" to access
squish bases.  Besides text is harder to work with, and requires MORE code to
deal with the <crazyness:of:text,file,config''s> then accessing something
something stored in binary.

  I'm not sure you do.

  Wow.  Where do you look Maurice on Linux websites?  That would explain that
comment.  There is so much amazing development out there for MacOS right now,
even free software.

  Right.  Textmode is the way to go!  Welcome to 1979!

  Computer is tit useless without a way to use it.  If your running 200
machines is text mode and I'm operating 1 computer with a monitor you tell me
who's wasting hydro.

  Besides what's the point in a 486?  You can buy a brand new Dell for $299
now, and $100 of that is the price of the OS.
