Re: Mouse copy/paste support

Since the clipboard patch requires a 3rd party library, it may be worthwhile to detect that library by the method in a previous post in this thread (edit to the configure.ac file). However, I didn't test it outside mingw. Also, before running configure it would be necessary to run "autogen.sh" (or …

That's what I was afraid of...! I'm trying to avoid installing xquartz in my main system, in order to stop myself from distributing anything that needs it on the user's system. I'll try to experiment on a VMware setup later on, but will glad to know what you find out when you get a chance to try it …

I have re-checked the officially supported platforms of PDCurses, which are DOS, OS/2, Win32, X11 and SDL. Probably you should use PDCurses-SDL instead of PDCurses-X11 on Mac OS X. I don't have OS X to test it personally though.

I've tried to compile the sdl version of pdcurses under OS X, but get an error message about not finding sdl.h. I've installed sdl-config via Macports, but it didn't help. I hope someone who knows what he or she is doing (as I don't) might be able to help, but I'll keep trying in the meantime.

Hello Wengier, I've tried both techniques, but I don't seem to have the syntax correct for modifying the makefile to add libpdcurses.a. The real expert in this is Dominus, and I'll hope that he'll have time to think about this before long. I'm simply stumbling around, and everything I know about …

Wengier is right to suggest trying the configure flags first, since hacking the makefile breaks the autotools build system. It may work to circumvent an issue, but it doesn't help design a cross-platform build.

OK, please keep in mind that I don't know what I'm doing, and that so far, I have done only what Dominus told me to do, using a build script based on his suggestions. In trying to apply the CopyPaste patch, I did the following: 1. Starting with current SVN, I substituted all of Wengier's "srschanges …

Following Dominus's advice, I tried to keep it simple. I did this: I added the patch from an earlier post to configure.ac. I ran configure with --enable-clipboard. I simply don't know how to tell the linker to find pdcurses, so when I run configure --enable-clipboard I get this error: checking for …

emendelson: several things 1. rebuild the pdcurses-sdl. You have built it for 64bit. make sure you use the same exports as in the script OPT=' -arch i386 -m32 -O2 -msse -msse2 -force_cpusubtype_ALL ' SDK=' -mmacosx-version-min=10.6 ' export MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.6 export PATH=/opt/local/bin/:/ …

My fault that I didn't realize pdcurses-sdl was static library only (libpdcurses.a). :) Using mingw and building pdcurses-sdl by its makefile for mingw, I built a working dosbox with the clipboard patch. It required the following change to configure.ac posted earlier in this thread: - LIBS="$LIBS - …
