This is what I did to run CircleMUD bpl13a under Win95 using Cygwin32.
It also worked for bpl12.
1. ftp://go.cygnus.com/pub/ftp.cygnus.com/gnu-win32/latest/
- Download and run cdk.exe
2. ftp://ftp.circlemud.org/pub/CircleMUD/3.x/
- Download circle30bpl13a.tar or .zip or .bz2
- Unzip whichever you download
3. Before running configure
- create c:\bin
- copy sh.exe from Ex. C:\cygnus\b19\h-i386-cygwin32\bin into c:\bin
- If your going to run bpl13a
- go into config.c and change char *LOGNAME = NULL; to Ex. char
*LOGNAME = "log/syslog";
- go into comm.c and change FILE *logfile = stderr; to FILE
*logfile = NULL;
4. If you haven't already, run Ex. C:\cygnus\b19\cygnus.bat
5. Change directories till you get into Ex. \Circle30bpl13a
6. Run configure by typing: sh ./configure
7. When configure is done go into the \src directory and type: make
8. When make is done go back to Ex. \circle30bpl13a and type: sh
./autorun &
9. Connect to 127.0.0.1 4000 and your ready to go.
Most of the credit for getting this to work should go to the mailing
list.
