To be clear this isn’t an HP-48 emulator, he’s starting from scratch.

Found the associated Gitlab but couldn't compile it for DM42

And it's a port of newRPL, which I think is great!

RE: DB48X: Turning a DM42 into an HP48
There's more about this in this thread on the SwissMicros DM42 forum. The DM42-based HP48 emulator Gitlab is here and it does compile. because I've done it! There are a lot of commits taking place on an almost-daily basis, but the software remains unstable.

Although it is described as "newRPL-inspired", I don't think that the DM42 application is currently a port of newRPL.

Just to clarify, this is no longer a port of newRPL. which did not fit in the limited memory of the DM42. I started from scratch, the new code is more compact but now passed newRPL in terms of features I believe.

I just pushed a `dev` branch that has many Linux related fixes (mostly warnings, but one hard error). I will try to be more careful about keeping the Linux version building at all times. My primary dev platform is macOS, but I have a dozen Linux machines at home, so I can certainly take the time to build there as well.

While the GitLab is generally up to date, the primary activity in terms of issues and PRs happens on GitHub. If you push issues on GitLab, I may fail to notice them. I don't know if I can configure magit to access both GitLab and GitHub at the same time. I'll check.
