Hello everybody.

I don't know if the answer to my question is available on internet, I've searched for it but I had no luk.

I run Devuan Jessie 1.0 in short a Debian without systemd.

uname -a :
Linux devuan 3.16.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.7-ckt25-2+deb8u3 (2016-07-02) x86_64 GNU/Linux

I downloaded the binary package of golded gpl114-7.tar.bz2, it works but I need
to set the TERM to vt100, with xterm, screen and so on I get this error at startup: "Error opening terminal", with xterm I get "Error opening terminal: xterm."

With vt100 I loose some useful keys like pgdown/up and so on, is it possibile to use xterm instead of VT100? :)

I also tryed to compile from the source gps114-7.tar.bz2 but after set GNUmakef.def with linux opts and mygolded.h when I start the make I get this error recursively and the make fails:

error: "and" cannot be used as a macro name as it is an operator in C++

this is the first of the bunch:

8<--snip--8<--snip--8<--snip--8<--snip--8<--snip--8<--snip--

making depends for gwinput2.cpp
In file included from ../../goldlib/gall/gkbdcode.h:56:0,
from gwinput2.cpp:29:
../../goldlib/gall/gdefs.h:41:9: error: "and" cannot be used as a macro name as

#ifndef and
^
8<--snip--8<--snip--8<--snip--8<--snip--8<--snip--8<--snip--

Any Hint?

Many thanks!

Ciao.
Fabio

I don't have an answer to your terminal question, but gpl114-7.tar.bz2 is 11 years old, so it would be best to try one of the recent 1.1.5 snapshots instead. The latest is gpsrc-115-20170303.tgz.

This works in Ubuntu 16.04 x86_64:

sudo apt-get install build-essential libncurses5-dev
wget -O gpsrc-115-20170303.tgz https://sourceforge.net/projects/golded-plus/files/Golded%2B%201.1.5%20snapshots/2017.03.03/gpsrc-115-20170303.tgz/download
tar xf gpsrc-115-20170303.tgz
cd golded-plus/golded+
cp -p golded3/mygolded.__h golded3/mygolded.h
make PLATFORM=lnx

You could also use "make PLATFORM=lnx BUILD=minimal" instead, and -j4 to speed up the build.

When make is finished the unstripped binary is golded-plus/golded+/bin/gedlnx.
