Thanks Alex - I'll try and do the translation to nasm and can validate it
on Linux itself (without removing anything).
Hey Joe ... yeah, WSL is really not an option for the use case where I'd
like to share scripts that I'd like to share. Thanks for the link though -
I was not aware of running "wsl
Hi Kashyap,
I've been interested in a picolisp port to Windows for several years. I've
tried a number of different options. My last effort was to use
https://midipix.org/ as the POSIX layer. It worked OK but then midipix
seemed to lose steam with Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) coming out.
Now,

I see. Nice!

I may have a trick to make things easier!
As a first step to validate the idea this is what I tried - I took the
x86-64.linux.base.s and removed the definition of doDe (this was a random
choice). I added the definition of doDe in another assembly (extra.nasm) in
nasm syntax -
global doDe
extern
I have been considering the idea of getting picolisp to run on windows
I think there is no easy way to get the posix-build of picolisp to run
on windows.
Even if we manage (as we did before with cygwin etc.), the
posix-dependent parts like fork() are required for all the nice stuff
(servers,

Hi,
I have been considering the idea of getting picolisp to run on windows
(without a heavy weight setup - cygwin/mingw) for a while now. What if I
try and target nasm instead of gnu assembler? That should work. Regarding
the POSIX dependency, I think it should be a matter of making all the
