Hi, (specifically to Mateusz)

Uses ancient Allegro but shouldn't be too impossibly hard. https://www.allegro.cc/depot/PacePlayer FYI, it is indeed GPL, but that's not saying much if it's not easy to recompile. I'm not sure exactly what dependencies it needs (Mikmod??). I'm not even entirely sure which version of Allegro it needs (or also add-ons). Using GPR2MAK doesn't shed much light. There used to be good DOS support for Allegro 4.x in FreeBASIC, but it's no longer included by default. Although they did (barely) update the *.BI in recent release. Honestly, my experience with those are quite minimal, so I'm not sure I'm much help. Mateusz, you could probably whip up a quick viewer in one sitting. Pace Player is not ostensibly a complicated project, but finding all the dependencies is the main problem. I have not searched the comp.os.msdos.djgpp archives nor trawled the /v2tk/allegro/ section of a DJGPP mirror, so it's possible that those will shed more light. But for now I have no "ideaz" (heh) on how to recompile Pace Player. P.S. It's also possible that there is old legacy Turbo Pascal code lying around somewhere. I'd be surprised if there weren't dozens of viewers in old SWAG archives. But I'd have to manually search (very tedious). It's like looking for a needle in a haystack. Very frustrating. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ One dashboard for servers and applications across Physical-Virtual-Cloud Widest out-of-the-box monitoring support with 50+ applications Performance metrics, stats and reports that give you Actionable Insights Deep dive visibility with transaction tracing using APM Insight. http://ad.doubleclick.net/ddm/clk/290420510;117567292;y _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
