Kona with Musl libc?

[Dimonax]

Has anyone tried building Kona against Musl-libc or tried porting it to an embedded environment?

I'm thinking about trying it with a Cortex-M4 processor.

I'm wondering how tiny I can make the K executable.

Also, anyone tried beefing up the K console for people wanting to use it as a system command shell? 

Regards,

hi, you need

#include <sys/select.h>

in kc.h

kona works well against musl.

Some indication of how small the K executable can be made is given by the Kx versions:

the executable for k2.8 on Linux is 194KB.

the executable for k3.2 on Windows is 3KB with an associated dll that is 178KB.

To an extent, you can already use the k console as a system command shell.

Just prepend the command with a backslash

example:  the command "ls" would be "\ls".
