At my first impression the M-Tx 0.54b binary seems to work fine on Win98SE. It is a 16bit MS-DOS binary, therefore i suppose it will run very much slower on Win2000/xp than on Win9x. To get a Win32 native binary, I tried compiling the C sources with Mingw-3.0.0-RC3 (gcc-3.2.3) on Win98SE. The procedure was: (1) Get p2c.h from somewhere. I found it from p2c package. http://www.ee.t-kougei.ac.jp/~nisimiya/DownloadFile/p2c-1.22-3.src.rpm (2) Put p2c.h into the same directory of C source files. (3) Replace #include <p2c/p2c.h> with #include "p2c.h" in all C source files. (4) gcc *.c -O2 -o prepmx.exe Some warnings appeared but resulting binary seems OK. On the other hand, the Pascal source could not be compiled with GNU Pascal compiler. (gpc-20030209-gcc-3.2.2.i386-pc-mingw32-2.tar.gz obtained from http://www.mingw.org/) I'm not familiar to Pascal so something of my trial must be wrong. By the way, I also applied my "absolute octave assignment patch for M-Tx0.52" (published since Jan 2003. for details see http://homepage1.nifty.com/kuuku/notation/mtxpatch-e.html) to M-Tx0.54b source and got a good result. (I *know* M-Tx0.54b has a new preamble command "Ocatve:".) I tried to translate the patch into Pascal but I cannot check it because I don't have Borland Pascal and can't install p2c rpm package. I will upload following results: *Win32 binary from original C source compiled with Mingw-3.0.0-rc3 *absolute octave patched mtx.c *absolute octave patched Win32 binary from C source *absolute octave patched mtx.pas (unchecked) to http://homepage1.nifty.com/kuuku/notation/mtx054b-w32-test.tar.gz .
