screenshot

Original Documentation is here:

README - some installation notes

doc.pdf - nice user manual

Linux Porting notes - WIP 2/2023

Current Status

  • "I just got this to run, but I don't know if it works yet - Frank"
  • Built as 32-bit executable, because there are places where pointer/integer sizes matter
  • Compiles/links with gcc-11 on Ubuntu
  • Fixed all warnings by adding #includes, prototypes (in spacewar.h)
  • Added Makefile target to build original documentation
  • Added temporary Makefile target to do some install stuff for debugging - WIP
  • fix varargs stuff
  • remove VMS code for clarity
  • remove -DVOID stuff
  • cleanup almost all the #ifdef DEBUG statements
  • remove BSD-specific stuff
  • remove ioctl() code, replace with termios.h stuff for now
  • review termcap stuff

TBD

  • playtesting
  • fixup hardcoded user stuff for install
  • fix time_t stuff to be 2038 compliant
  • do proper make install target
