EBMusEd MacOS/Linux

[nbarger]

I wonder if there would be a way to make this program available to MacOS or Linux through CMake. If not, maybe just some sort of translation of the code for GCC.

I use a Mac, sometimes Linux VMs, and do not own a Windows machine. I'm working on a romhack, and hope to create some music for it. Wine does not work, and a Windows VM through virtual box is too heavy for my computer.

Thanks for anyone's feedback or advice.

As it stands right now, ebmused directly uses the Win32 API for everything related to the UI, and it would take a lot of work to move that to something cross-platform.

My understanding is that it should work in Wine, though... I've seen screenshots of it working and everything. What error does Wine give you when you run it?

My computer cannot run 32 bit wine for some strange reason (probably because i have a 64 bit mac), and since most windows apps are 32 bit i've never been able to run anything with it.

I've been looking into some porting libraries like W2LPL or maybe even wine's own libraries.

It is possible to build ebmused for x64, so... whenever ebmused has its next release, 2.5.0 or whatever, it should be relatively easy to provide a 64-bit exe option for download.

In the meantime, I made an x64 build a few months ago, I think using commit 55e1b93. You may have more luck with it? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/788839500532023346/1089352635435450538/ebmused.exe
