   Ugh, the What’s new in Swift got me excited for a few seconds. I was fully prepared to finally see Linux cross compilation and debugging from within Xcode, the same like what we have for Darwin.
   But it looks like what’s new is what’s old, we have had that cross compilation for years (probably for more than 5?).

     That’s what I thought.

     …ah, the post above “dating to the beginnings of OS X” is something someone said in a WWDC session, I take it?

     @inthehands It does, it predates OSX by years. It came to NeXTstep 3.2(?) as part of EOF
