Build from source with Orange C

[yh15kla9]

@LADSoft @GitMensch see if your compiler is good enough to build a real world application.

Why don't you just try and report back if there's anything? The main thing is obviously to adjust build.bat to use variables for CC and RC , defaulting to gcc and winres if they are not defined (that's reasonable in any case and a PR that possibly gets merged here), then execute build.bat setting these to OrangeC's tools...

The "Issues" section is designed for bug reports and feature suggestions related to the repository or application. If you would like to suggest support for other compilers, please use the "Discussions" tab or consider opening a pull request to add it directly.

Thank you for your suggestion, but this is not the right place for it. Still, if I were to answer the compiler question, this project uses only gcc in the main repo, but you are free to fork and add your own compilers.

If only COVSCRIPT were as easy to process sigh....

i had luck with this command line, invoked from the src directory. The resulting EXE put up a gui but I didn't take it any further than that.

occ -Wg todo.c main.c gui.c utils\search.c -Iutils

you could have also used the gcc wrapper:

gccocc -mwindows todo.c main.c gui.c utils\search.c -Iutils

there is also a wrapper for clocc.exe if you wanted to try that...
