Win11: Constant Syntax error when building basic DSP

Open YPares opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

Hi! I tried to install faust on my windows machine (only used in on Linux previously). And whatever .dsp file, architecture, language etc I use, I get:

PS C:\Users\limes\dev\Faust> faust lala.dsp
extra text is :
lala.dsp : 1 : ERROR : syntax error, unexpected EXTRA

with for instance just that simple file

PS C:\Users\limes\dev\Faust> cat .\lala.dsp

declare name "Noise";
declare copyright "(c)GRAME 2018";

import("stdfaust.lib");

// noise level controlled by a slider
process = no.noise * hslider("gain",0,0,1,0.1);

I have FAUST Version 2.68.1

Better use a Linux VM if possible.

@sletz Do you mean faust is broken on windows currently?

I mean using it on Linux as always easier.

Well, right now it's not that faust is harder to use on windows, it's that the faust executable is completely unusable for me :/ ...
