You have to first use the GUI to enable the socket interface and then
quit so that option is saved.

Not an issue for me. These days, my OS of choice is Debian GNU/Linux.
I was able to checkout and build the code easily enough and apply the
patch. However, the TCP port doesn't open for me when I use `virtualt
-nogui`. Am I using the wrong repository? This is what I'm doing:
```console
$ git clone https://git.code.sf.net/p/virtualt/code virtualt
$ sudo apt install libjpeg-dev libxft-dev libxinerama-dev libfltk1.4-dev
$ cd virtualt
$ make
$ telnet localhost 2023
Connection failed: Connection refused

A big thank you, Ken, for the snippet. I've committed it to my

How does your repository differ from the one at sf.net/p/virtualt
<http://sf.net/p/virtualt>? Asking Google for "Virtual-T, Joshua
O'Keefe" gave me an AI response about the human response to mazes and
a suggestion that perhaps I was looking to Build a Better World
through Irish Folk Music.
