they even have a full distro, clear linux, which is actually pretty good? i found out about it when i was compiling a newer mesa for my chromebook like a year ago (and was surprised to find the iris driver was donated) only thing preventing me from using it really was because i'm a baby that needs apt

that is what I use Cygwin in path for Mingw is better though if you want something redistributable, even if you need a ton of dlls if you're using Cairo or whatever e: it's fun to run cmd and start typing in posix commands and running linux-native things Private Speech fucked around with this message at 20:38 on May 9, 2022 |

Beeftweeter posted:lol, use busybox as your cmd interpreter and just call gcc directly or just use wsl + mingw or some clangy equivalent cygwin has a bunch of precompiled packages and it's quick and easy YMMV that's just what I've been doing since before WSL became a public thing again it's for messing about in windows using linux/posix utils, not as a compilation env, I do use WSL or VMs or docker for that e: busybox is fine and all but it's a bit finnicky and doesn't integrate as well with windows FS, it's fine for compiling things I guess Private Speech fucked around with this message at 09:40 on May 10, 2022 |
