many guys around have never used ca65, c compilers, cygwin, from what algorithm writes it also needs perl ? a step by step tutorial would make life for us clueless idiots easyer. what needs to be instealled, what needs to be in path, how to set that up, example make commandlines / config files, etc. |

Seriously, it's not _THAT_ hard, even for a complete newbie. If you have interest you _WILL_ work it out, I promise. |

I'm gonna amaze all of you: I've written the first post just after some attempts, which have been incredibly performed just after a reading of the docs. I know you're surprised'bout this revelations right now :)
Thank you all for encourage me to try and try again, installing and placing those useful stuff some here and some there trying to make it works, unfortunately I'm not that skilled to understand why there's no 'make' exe to run somewhere (just top say one), but I try and I try and I'll try again, hence root for me. |

sometimes i am absolutely sure that there is a video tutorial for everything - including how to shit into your own pants.
a coder who never used a c compiler? seriously, no. its not 1988 anymore.

seriously. this. it'll also be very rewarding to have solved a problem entirely by yourself instead of getting it spoon feed by someone else. you may even actually learn something new =P |

Quoting Groepazwtf is so hard about installing ca65 and then typing "make" in the sourcetree? *shrug* Nothing, if it goes well. But there can easily be all kinds of problems you have to figure out.

Yes, and they all make different tacit assumptions about build systems and dependencies. Do you all know your way around the module systems of Perl, Haskell, Python, Ruby, Scheme48, ATS, Scala and SWI-Prolog, just to name a few?
While I agree with Groepaz that the best approach is to just dive in and try to untangle the knot, I can also appreciate what a dauting task it feels like before the pieces fall into place.
Luca: There's not supposed to be a make.exe. You have to install a make package (GNU make is good), and then you will have a "make" command in your path. Stand in the directory containing a file called "Makefile" and run "make" with no arguments. Also, when you edit a Makefile, make sure to use tabs and not spaces.
Simple when you know it, but like I said, all sorts of tacit assumptions. |
