Hello,

I found your project very interesting, and wanted to compile it for

  • Linux

also for

  • Windows

cross-compiling on Linux using see http://mxe.cc/#tutorial like in this example at the beginning of one of my Makefiles ( https://github.com/Wikinaut/agrep/blob/master/Makefile ):

# for cross-compilation to Windows
#
# use
# make CROSS=i686-pc-mingw32-

Perhaps you can add

  • a Makefile
  • a file INSTALL

Thanks in advance.

The author just wrote me

I have compiled Paperbak with the Borland C++ Builder 5. There are no special make requirements. Probably it is sufficient to throw all files into the Visual Studio and specify that this is a 32-bit Windows GUI application. (Oh, and also some small things like fnsplit()/fnmerge() must be replaced with MS equivalents, and you will get many warnings that strcpy() is unsafe etc.) I no longer develop or support Paperbak.
