I might have an hour a day to work on this, but, a lot of my startup
time would be catching up and making it work in my work environment.
And my time would probably be spent in fewer, larger chunks of time.

I run Linux, and I used to be handy with Makefiles. I'm a little rusty
ATM. I'm looking to be able to use the C++ support on a couple of my
pet projects which are written in C++ on Linux. I'd very much like to
be able to (re)use some C++ code that I wrote a while back. I have no
access to either OSX or Visual anything.
