Ok lets get back on track
First of All
Sorry for my horrible English.
Sorry if i have offended anybody that was never my meaning !
Tanks Hans for bringing me to the right side ...

I mean running a C compiler under ELKS ore similuare "C++" ;-)
have learned now that some sort of C bcc, and Asambler, ACK. Is how to start Now i have to Study both English and Programming ;-)
And i am not the right person to judge if the site shuld have the diffrent Programming Language and compilers on the side But i dont think so.
some "ftp" with programs none to work on ELKS .. like thre example from microwin ftp://microwindows.censoft.com/pub/microwindows/Binaries/ElksExamples ore similare

Please no apology, if we don't understand we can always ask :-)

In that case you best bet is to use bcc (C only). You might be able to port another compiler but I suspect that is not going to be easy.

For English I would use a spelling checker since that can help you a lot. I am not sure about gaining some programming skills using ELKS unless you are after embedded programming skills?

mmmm..., I think we should since I am personally not a great fan of BCC simply because I failed to build it under Cygwin and Gentoo64. I have received a number of suggestion to solve this one like chrooting into a 32 bits environment but to be honest there are a lots of free 8086 compilers available and some of them are quite good (e.g. Open Watcom, see
http://www.openwatcom.org/index.php/Main_Page).
Another suggestion is to use ACK. This has the added advantage that we can target different microcontroller/processors something which might boost the popularity of ELKS. David Given is working on (or has completed? ) resurrecting this compiler. See

for a trail of old messages.

Interesting, I guess there are lots of good links lurking away on the internet, Jody, what about adding a useful links page to the website?
Regards,
Hans.

Still going; it's a slow, tedious process. I'm currently rewriting the build system from scratch to make it, like, actually maintainable. This has, unfortunately, require writing a build tool to do it! It tends to move on in fits and starts as I gain/lose interest.
However, the version on the website with the old build system
(http://tack.sf.net) *does* build and run on Linux. The only trouble with it is that it doesn't know how to produce ELKS binaries, so someone would have to write a binary format converter to do that (and produce an ELKS syscall library). This wouldn't be much work, seeing as how ELKS uses Minix binaries which the ACK does know how to make, but would still need someone to actually do it... volunteers?
(The ACK will, if you ask it to, compile Fortran, Pascal, K&R C, ANSI C, Occam, Basic and Modula 2 for any platform it supports; so if someone *were* to do that, you suddenly gain a whole bunch of new supported languages.)
