Note: Starting October 12 2023, Microsoft GitHub is forcing me to use 2FA to access to my repositories. Microsoft wants me to use my Cell Phone or some proprietary application for 2FA, email is not allowed. So updates to this project will no longer occur on GitHub. Updates and full Source can be downloaded from my Gemini Capsule:
- gemini://gem.sdf.org/jmccue/computer/repository.gmi
- gemini://sdf.org/jmccue/computer/repository.gmi (mirror)
See gemini wikipedia for clients.
Objects in this library goes back decades, some started out on MS-DOS and a little known Unix called IN/ix (a 16 bit Unix on a proprietary 8086 clone).
To build, execute gen_make.sh to generate a Makefile for most BSD/Linux systems and IBM AIX. makefile.dos can be used for MS-DOS Systems under Microsoft c.
GNU automake only confuses me, so I came up with my own method which is a real hack. But works for me.
