Wow! This is awesome!

https://github.com/victor3dptz/executor ... ster/ready

From Victor:

"I've compiled Executor on Linux and have build rpm and deb packages for easy install.
They are located on my github: https://github.com/victor3dptz/executor ... ster/ready

Tested on CentOS 6.8 32bit, Debian Jessie 32 bit, Linux Mint 18.1 64bit."

I am going to add this to the wiki later today!

Nice! How much work would it be to cross compile to BSD and OS X?

It appears that has happened already: https://github.com/MaddTheSane/executor

The source code is there. But there doesn't seem to be a compiled binary.

@ClockWise:
I saw you have updated the Executor info page at http://www.emaculation.com/doku.php/executor.
The official documentation is accessible via https://web.archive.org/web/20050305075720/http://www.ardi.com/docs.php.
Also, the general info on Executor from ardi.com is accessible via https://web.archive.org/web/20050305084324/http://www.ardi.com/executor.php.
Maybe you could update the Help and Documentation section as well.

Would it make sense to also mirror the original Ardi docs on the wiki?

Good point! I have updated the wiki to point to the archive.org version of the documents. Since those were out of date even when posted on the site, I think that just linking to them might be a bit better than sticking them into the wiki themselves.

Meanwhile, if anyone is interested in what Cliff Matthews is up to these days, Google tells me that this is his "new" site: http://devctm.com/

Hello everybody! I'm the one who compiled the Executor for Linux. If you face any problems regarding that rpm and deb packaged I've built, let me know.

I don't have OSX. If it is important, I may try to compile it for BSD

If you got it functioning on BSD, I'm sure someone on here could tweak it for OS X, using the Core APIs.

It'd be nice to have a Classic environment that doesn't involve OS emulation running on a modern OS X.

Is anyone in touch with MaddTheSane? It would be really good to have a compiled version...

I compiled and uploaded it.

https://transfer.sh/kz4c7/Executor.zip

I haven't tested it, however.

Thank you! I wasn't able to make it run, but that's probably because I don't know how to set it up. When I dug down into the app and ran the unix executable in the terminal, this was the result:
MacBook-Air-2015:MacOS myname$ ./NeoClassic

Couldn't open System: '/Users/myname/Downloads/Release/NeoClassic.app/Contents/Resources/ExecutorVolume/System Folder'
Probably someone who knows more than I do (which means almost everyone) can figure out how to fix this!

Did someone succeed running the NeoClassic.app so far?
No dice under Sierra on my side, but I´ll try 10.9 to rule out Sierra issues.

Thanks for your time, everybody making Executor happen in OS X!

Edit: No luck either. The app won´t start, although security is set accordingly.

Wow. It lives!

What were the biggest obstacles in getting it to work again? I figured that its dependencies on ancient, outdated libraries had something to do with it.

I can say with certainty that that fork won't work. You'd have better luck with the fork here. It even has a rootless mode if compiled with the Qt back-end.

For El Capitan and later, I think rootless is close to a requirement, so this version should work much better.

Dear Arch Linux and Manjaro users! You may now install executor from AUR (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/executor/):

Code: Select all

yaourt -S executor
Binary package (64 bit) is available too: https://github.com/victor3dptz/executor ... arch-linux

This build is based on the code from https://github.com/autc04/executor. Looking forward for any feedback and issues.
