OK, I mis-understood. ALT-HOME may switch from window to full screen and back.

Have you tried ALT-HOME?

You should install \OS2IMAGE\DEBUG\SYMBOLS\OS2\DLL\UCV32.SYM from your AOS ISO and recreate the trp.

Looking at the configure options, of interest,
Code: [Select]
# no-asm        do not use assembler
...
# 386           generate 80386 code in assembly modules
# no-sse2       disables IA-32 SSE2 code in assembly modules, the above
#               mentioned '386' option implies this one

Attempting to build the RPM, I've got to,
Code: [Select]
Configuring OpenSSL version 3.4.1 for target os2
Using os-specific seed configuration
syntax error at (eval 25) line 102, near ",

Need to continue adding Perl stuff and hopefully get around the syntax error.

Yes, the long term plan is to move GCC to compiling to ELF, which it is already capable of. Wlink in theory can link ELF files to OS/2 executables and does mostly work for C programs. CPLUS is another matter. As well other parts of the toolchain would need updating. Need a skilled programmer that is interested.
As for OpenSSL, another option might be not using the assembly code. Haven't looked at OpenSSL, but generally these projects have C code as well as assembly with the C code being a fall back for times when there is no assembly available like using a different CPU. Be slower and need to recompile the library.

OK, didn't realize where the developers are, pretty crappy situation. At that the whole world seems to be going down the flusher.
As for the problem, yes it should be fixed. There's always people with old hardware/operating systems vs developers with the latest and endless ram etc.

Tellie, could you post your diffs? I never did get a the exports working here and my qtupnp.dll was much bigger.

Can you ask the OS4 people for a switch to turn off the AVX handling? I forget the basics but the OS does advertise whether it supports AVX and that would all that needs to be turned off.

Did that and added OS/2 to the UPNP_EXPORTS define (needed for linking) yesterday, still missing symbols. Have to look better later when I have more time.
Edit: The import lib now is a lot bigger so it's just the linker line that needs fixed, later.

I gave it a quick try. Unluckily I got a DLL with no exports. Perhaps Tellie will have better luck, he seems to have a better environment.

Seems the emulator is using the Replica 1 ROM which does have basic included.

Try PRINT "HELLO" and PRINT 1+2. These would work on an APPLE II, not sure if the APPLE I had basic.
Hmm, see https://www.applefritter.com/replica/chapter5 seems originally it did not have it in ROM. And it booted into the monitor. Come to think of it, I believe the 1st APPLE II also booted into the monitor, which was quite capable and included a mini-assembler.
Edit: Fix typo

It seems to be a local problem. I should probably uninstall and reinstall cmake.
Often I can work around by using Ninja instead of make but am unsure how to add extra includes and libraries as we're using the OW SDL libs.

Been having problems with cmake, it produces makefiles that recurse and lock the system up.

Hello

Any idea what this program is?

Is it the "Anthy -- Japanese Kana-Kanji Conversion Engine Library" ?
https://github.com/netsphere-labs/anthy

Seems to be, tried building the git version,
Code: [Select]
Directory of H:\tmp\anthy\src-util

 1-26-26  7:45p        48,204      0 a---  anthy-agent.exe
 1-26-26  7:44p        37,738      0 a---  anthy-dic-tool.exe
 1-26-26  7:45p        40,169      0 a---  anthy-morphological-analyzer.exe
Unluckily the git version uses UTF8.

how do we know if it works?
Almost seems like something is missing,
Code: [Select]
H:\anthy\bin>anthy-agent.exe
Failed to init anthy
Or perhaps I don't know how to run it. Need a Japanese user I guess.

Regards

Unluckily the build dies, needs some -L and -l added to the configure LDFLAGS and LIBS to fix some missing symbols.
Edit: fix a typo
