Clarification for Windows installation procedure #106

Open RowanSkie opened 4 years ago

RowanSkie commented 4 years ago

I require some assistance and further clarification. I have been trying to install cmatrix on Windows, with the amalgamation of using vcpkg for pdcurses (due to my inability to build pdcurses) and chocolatey for cmake and make. I used Git to directly download the source and followed the one in Readme.md, and these are the following results on both PowerShell and Command Prompt:

PS C:\> cd cmatrix
PS C:\cmatrix> mkdir -p build

    Directory: C:\cmatrix

Mode                LastWriteTime         Length Name

d-----       30/06/2020   1:27 pm                build

PS C:\cmatrix> cd build
PS C:\cmatrix\build> cmake ..

Should I ignore and continue or point the path for curses library to pdcurses?

yikerman commented 4 years ago

curses is not avliable under Windows. Which means Windows is not supported.

I guess I really need to try that Ubuntu wrapper Windows has then...

Hadn't tried... I use macOS. ;P

@RowanSkie Try PDCurses

abishekvashok commented 3 years ago

@RowanSkie any updates?

RowanSkie commented 3 years ago

I've more or less abandoned trying it out since July, since also that time I had remembered I used Ubuntu for Windows before, but it didn't support the fonts. Has there been anything new?
