XTC68 install.sh freezes under Cygwin under Win10

Hi everyone, I am not able to install xtc68 under Cygwin under Windows 10. I have followed the instructions (copying and unzipping the files to the "support" directory, installing dependencies, etc.) It freezes whenever I run "install.sh" and no files from "support" are...

Re: XTC68 C Cross compiler

@NormanDunbar, I think your suggestion is really good.
I just need to check whether it can be used with all compilers.

Re: XTC68 C Cross compiler

Thanks! My code goes through a tool chain made of more or less C89 C cross-compilers including also CC65, Z88DK, CMOC, ACK, Z8K-GCC... #include "../foo.h" seems to be C89-compliant I need my code to compile on all of these compilers. The solution is to have my code to be C89-compliant. Wha...

Re: XTC68 C Cross compiler

Hi everyone! I have managed to install XTC68. It does work on a single file but I don't know how to get it to compile files some of which have #include directives of user-created header files with relative paths. I get these errors: root@brizio-VirtualBox:/media/sf_Retro/CROSS-CHASE/src# make cc_tin...

QDOS-GCC How to run the binaries?

Hi everyone, I am trying to use XTC68 (and not QDOS-GCC as I wrote initially). I have managed to build the version at: https://github.com/stronnag/xtc68 This version has no crt.o, no headers and no libs and no instructions on how to install them other than a link to http://www.dilwyn.me.uk/c/index.h...

Re: Cross-Chase

@Derek_Stewart, ncurses is just one possibilities. curses may also be ok. If real graphics is not too complicated, I could make a QL module with sprites and not just ASCII characters. The game code is hardware-agnostic. I can even make a non-graphics module where the game becomes a sort of text-adve...

Re: Cross-Chase

Maybe I should give up docker and try to install qdos-gcc natively. It is a lengthy process that requires patching a specific gcc version.

Has anyone here managed to install gdos-gcc? I will try to install it under cygwin.

Re: Cross-Chase

@M68008, I know I need to use the -v option. The question is how: Brizio@DESKTOP-I20P8HM MINGW64 /c/Program Files/Docker Toolbox $ docker run -v /c/Retro xora/qdos-gcc qdos-gcc hello.c qdos-gcc: hello.c: No such file or directory qdos-gcc: No input files Brizio@DESKTOP-I20P8HM MINGW64 /c/Program Fil...

Re: Cross-Chase

Hi Derek, the problem here is that I cannot ever run the compiler. I need to understad how to use qdos-gcc. The graphics and sounds on CROSS-CHASE is target-specific through some sort of "driver" or module. I have all sort of modules and I can make one for whatever is possible with the QL....

Re: Cross-Chase

I am using docker because I though it was the simplest way to get to compile my game. I am open to other possibilities. I am not "porting my game" to the QL. I just want to compile it "as it is" for the QL and add the necessary bits to my universal tool-chain: https://github.com/...
