How to compile Astrolog 7.7 on Tiny Core Linux (for TCL-11.1 ; x86 & x86_64-bit)

Why not try dong it your self, like I said the thread before.

As a starting point, download the source tarball, uncompress it and check whether it uses autotools, cmake, meson or something else as a build system.

I asked for your help because I don't know how to compile a file whose source code is not even 5MB.

I don't want you to provide me with a ready-compiled version, I want to compile it myself.

Hi Juanito

... check whether it uses autotools, cmake, meson or something else as a build system.

Nothing like that. Just a simple Makefile complete with
comments and explanations:

So simple a child could do it. Unless that child is too lazy and spoiled to even try.

Can't say it better myself.

History: First ask if someone can do it, and no body answer.
And then bump the thread, to get attension.
Then I suggest to the user to try compile it, and get help from this forum.
And now remove the prev thread and create i new one with the same question.

Sorry for being little helpless/help willing(if that is the correct word, don't know)

thanks.

I found the missing command.
