Since I recently aquired a “new” linux box (900 MHz, 600-some MB RAM), I decided the summer would be a good time for me to make GUIEncode compile on Linux.

So, in the next couple of weeks, I’ll be posting some updates on how compiling for linux is going, and what improvements I’m making to GUIEncode because it needs to compile on Linux.  Overall, this should not only result in cleaner source code, but also a new and improved version that works great on Linux!  Initially, everything compiles fine, but there are some complaints in the program if you try to run it.  So, stay tuned for all the updates in the next couple of weeks.  Depending on what time allows, I hope to have a working Linux version of GUIEncode within the month.

Once it compiles and runs on Linux, it should also be able to compile and run on Mac OSX.  However, I don’t have the money to buy a REALbasic license to compile for OSX, so I won’t be able to do that myself.  If someone has OSX and REALbasic, please contact me!  When the code has been cleaned up, if you can compile it, credit will be given!
