I'd be perfectly satisfied with an open source tw_cli I could use on MIPS. > I have PPC32/64, but no MIPS box, otherwise I could build you a tw_cli > binary that would work. I do have a PowerMac G5 with 3.3V PCI-X. Could I configure it somehow with that? Alternatively, I can easily give you ssh access to my MIPS system if you'd be willing to compile tw_cli for MIPS. Send me your ssh key.
