at last i got my zip100 usb drive now i have all the changes i made to my code on BeOS uploaded to my git repository. i also tested it on my iMac. it compiles and runs fine. up next i'll need to add more preprocessor branches for it to optionally run without any renderers, and to compile with SDL1.2 instead of SDL2 ( this will make my code even more portable to a far greater number of platforms. i... » Continue Reading
