So how trivial would it be to make Firefox not need the ELF Loader at all to work? Jymbob 16:27, 19 Mar 2007 (GMT)
Extremely simple: "elf2aif <input ELF binary> <output AIF binary>" is what the developer or someone else needs to do (note that this didn't exist when FF2 got first released). The code at GCCSDK SVN gccsdk/gcc4/riscos/elf2aif. joty 03:04, 20 Mar 2007 (GMT)
Wow. That was easy. I'm now running an AIF binary Firefox. That was ridiculously easy, I must say. Also it reduces the dependancies of Firefox, hopefully making it easier to install/package. Oh, and it might be my imagination, but it certainly seems faster... Jymbob 15:03, 20 Mar 2007 (GMT)
