(bear with me, I'm new at using mailing lists) I started lurking here a few weeks ago in hopes of getting insight about how to compile MC on OS/2. Since the only programming I know is DOS Basic, it is a fruitless but entertaining pastime for me. > 2) There are at least two nc-like filemanagers for OS/2 - File Commander/2 > (http://silk.apana.org.au/fc.html) and OS/2 Commander > (http://www.reinfeld.de/os2com/), both shareware. I don't think that the > remaining OS/2 users care about licence too much. OS/2 is waning but not dead, and I imagine OS/2 users care about licence as much as any group of users. I have been using OS/2 Commander; it has some bugs and so far as I can tell is not being maintained. A good port of MC would certainly be an improvement. > 3) It should be possible to compile MC with EMX using standard sources and > build process (configure; make) - like the Cygwin port. Interesting. That didn't work for me and I assumed that was why there was an EMX-specific Makefile. I'll look more closely at it. > If anybody wants to work on the OS/2 port (I mean fixing the problems, not > just testing) please speak out now. Unfortunately, I don't know enough to be much help. It would be nice if someone from the UnixOS2 project at www.unixos2.org would get involved.
