Adv770 source downloads

The gzipped tarball adv770c.tgz (774K) contains the ANSI C source files and header files, derived by my A-code-to-C translator from the Adv770 A-code master source. The basic build is trivial: just compile and link the lot using an ANSI C compiler, and you'll have a fully functional adv770 executable. However, this executable won't support command history or editing, nor will it be windows-aware.

Follow this link if you need instructions for building less "dumb" executables from the same C source.

That instructions page contains links to the additional bits, necessary for building a GLK-linked executable on Windows (the Linux build does not use Glk any more), but in case you know what you are doing and do not need further instructions, here are the Winglk bundle. winglk.zip (308 KB). However, if unsure what's all this about, I strongly suggest you read the above-linked document on building A-code games from C sources.

The supplied C sources are known to build using gcc under DOS, Win98 (and later), Linux (all distributions), and also using native C compilers under Solaris2.x, Irix 6.x, HP-UX 10.x and VMS 7.x. It really should work with any ANSI C compiler. Do let me know if you come across any exceptions!
