Great news, awesome. Congrats. Looks like we've won the game.
That reminds me, I wanted to get into contact with Joerg Schilling
again to discuss the license issue with him so we won't run into any
problems with that.

Please just write an extra patch for that, I'll apply it after testing
with Linux and MacOS.

Ah, yes. Haven't had the time today after returning home yesterday to
test himdformat_scg with real hardware. Since Michael has the MZ-RH1,
he should bring it to the uni tomorrow.
@Michael:
Could you test himdformat_scg (from current git/master) as Thomas
suggests? Afterwards, we can test on the Mac in the uni as well.
