Can I have instructions on how to compile ptcpas for x86_64-win64? I tried guessing that I might need fpcmake -r -Tx86_64-win64 when I try that I get : Processing Makefile.fpc x86_64-win64 requires: rtl Writing Makefile Processing demos/Makefile.fpc x86_64-win64 requires: rtl Writing Makefile Processing examples/Makefile.fpc x86_64-win64 requires: rtl Writing Makefile Processing test/Makefile.fpc x86_64-win64 requires: rtl Writing Makefile But when I try to run make I get: Makefile:208: *** The Makefile doesn't support target i386-win32, please run fpcmake first. Stop. I tried looking at command line options for make but I don't see how to change the target to x86_64-win64, and anyway I might be doing it completely wrong so I think it's best to just ask I also notice that the changes in https://sourceforge.net/p/ptcpas/code/742 list 'dead key support under Windows and X11 (via XIM)' in the comments. are the missing keys now working and if so do I need to enable them somehow? I haven't tried compiling this yet, I'm still using r715. I thought I would ask if it was ready first.

This includes the lack of support for extended keys (like F11 and F12). The Windows crt unit doesn't conform strictly to that, however, so that's why there are differences. I don't want to sacrifice the DOS/TP7 crt unit compatibility, so I'll have to think of something, but it'll take a little time. Perhaps I'll add different keyboard compatibility "modes" or something like that.
