Thanks Peter,

I like this game very much.

But I did not realise you were so old!

Events of 1877  ;D

What were the computers like then?

Ahh, Peter is either a vampire or an immortal who has to cut off heads of other immortals. This explains his gaming passion, but the coding I haven' figured out. That is something new to the genre :)

Peter,

I had a look at the code this morning and at first site, very little would need to be altered to work in Oxygen apart from supplying the right headers.

Without making any commitments now, I would like to see how close we can get to perfect compatibility with your original Pelles C code.

Charles,
  If you do plan on cross platform it might make more sense to make it compatible with gcc rather than pelles ??

Hi James,

I think the differences would be in the libraries but the core C syntax should be the same. That is really what I am aiming for.

Then "Oxygen Basic" would be misleading; maybe plain "Oxygen" would be more appropriate...

Hi efgee,

Unfortunately there are too many oxygens on the web. So it has to be Oxygen something.. :)

Oxygen takes on board as much C syntax as is necessary. The power and brevity of the C notation is evident in the number of languages that use it, like Java for instance. So it make sense to follow the herd and gain the benefit of easier code porting. But much can be done to produce more readable and better looking code.
