Subj : EMX / GCC configuration issues To : Mike Luther From : Bob Jones Date : Thu Jul 31 2003 11:32 pm ML> OK Bob ..

The Max/Linux port is terminal based and using curses (or ncurses).... This pre-dates Windows and OS/2.... This is dumb terminal, 80x24 character control.... Which should be fine for a BBS that expects to talk to just "vt-100" or ANSI "dumb" terminals.... Ok, maybe in back-porting the Linux to compile using the GNU EMX C compiler under OS/2 I might get some of the older (original) OS/2 code working.... Now, where's sh for OS/2? [The configure script needs it...] Guess I could manually figure out each of the items that script tests and hand edit vars.mk. And OS/2 TEDIT does nasty things to s in text files.... And make that came in GCC321.ZIP does differenciate between and eight spaces. :( Ok, where did I hide that copy of a VI clone for OS/2? ML> Inquiring mind wants to know. ;) Come join the fun / insanity on working on the code.... ;) Take care..... Bob Jones, 1:343/41 --- Maximus/2 3.01 * Origin: Top Hat 2 BBS (1:343/41) .
