It is a C/C++ scripting language. I may not think it as 
a new language. For example, you can run the following standard C code in
Ch::

==
#!/bin/ch

#include 
int main()
{
  printf("Hello world\n");
}

I agree. but perl, ruby, python, lua and tcsh are a different language for 
C/C++ users.

I see. you mean tcsh has been ported to windows.

I tried a couple of gnuwin32 binary, it runs fine without using
the tcsh, it can run in msdos or any other shells.

[GnuWin32-Users] [gnuwin32 - Help] New libtiff packages

2005-02-16 Thread SourceForge.net

Read and respond to this message at:

I have see that there is a new libtiff packages (3.7.x) released. There is 
someone
that think to upgrade gnuwin32 libtiff from 3.6.x to 3.7? I want to use it to
my new release of an opensource project (hylapex), but I can't use 3.6 version
because hylafax don't work with 3.6 due to a bug.

Many thanks,
Michele Petrazzo

Thanks for the many hints. When I have time, I will play a little
bit with that.

Well, I spent already some time with it and found, that 'less' work
perfectly on my cmd.exe shell. Neither 'less' nor 'info' change
their behaviour if I change the TERM environment variable -- except
that 'info' will complain about the stupidity of vt100 or of
whatever I will set TERM -- independent whether a corresponding
entry exist or not within the gnuwin32-path/etc/termcap file.

I have also set a TERMCAP environment variable to
gnuwin32-path/etc/termcap as well as to gnuwin32-path\etc\termcap.
No influence.

Perhaps I first must find a program that tests the settings and
functionality of termcap in order to know if I do the right thing or
not. I am not an experienced gnuwinner ;-)

I do something analogous: I install GnuWin32 texinfo-4.6 *except*
info.exe in my gnuwin32-path/bin folder and take the info.exe along
with the required dlls from cygwin :-\

Thanks again for all hints!

Mathias

Re: [GnuWin32-Users] distribute gnuwin32 with Ch

2005-02-16 Thread Marc Chantreux
Hi Peter,
Peter Wu a écrit :
Here is the difference between tcsh and ch shell.
Tcsh shell is C-like Shell, Ch shell is C-compatible shell.  Note
that Ch is C/C++ interpreter, it supports C99 and C++ class.
All Win32, GTK, OpenGL, ODBC applications can run 
in Ch without compilation. 
 

well, Yet another scripting language ...

There are many C/C++ users who may sometimes write some shell scripts
for quick job. Using C-compatible shell can take advantage of their
C/C++ skills without learning a different language.
 

well ... i've perl for quick jobs :-) but ruby or lua are very good too.
BTW, I am not sure what you mean that win32 is supported by tcsh.
 

well. Amol wrote a win32 port of tcsh and this is now a part of the tcsh 
sources.

Does gnuwin32 run independant of any shells?
 

i don't think so : a shell is just a glue between processes and file 
descriptors (maybe i'm wrong).

regards
