ABC Implementations

The available files are:

abc-windows.zip
Included .pif files for running abc on Windows 98, Windows 2000 and XP. To install it, just unpack the ABC directory as c:\Program Files\ABC, or read the file readme.txt for what to do if you want it somewhere else. To uninstall, just delete the directory where you unpacked it.
abc.tar.gz
Debian/Ubuntu binaries; should work on any Debian derivative. (.deb file coming one day). Unpack in a directory, and run directly from there. Alternatively put abc and abckeys in any directory in your $PATH, and abc.hlp and abc.msg in ~/abc/ or /usr/local/lib/abc/.
abc-rpi.zip
Raspberry Pi. Compiled and run on a Zero, and a Pi4. Unpack in a directory, and run directly from there. Alternatively put abc and abckeys in any directory in your $PATH, and abc.hlp and abc.msg in ~/abc/ or /usr/local/lib/abc/.
abcMAC.dmg
for the Mac; copy the files to a folder, and run from there.
abc-unix.tar.gz
Sources. These will compile under Unix/Linux, but also under Mac, and with a suitable environment such as Cygwin, under Windows. Note: they are not 64-bit compliant, which means you have to compile them as 32 bit. I suspect there is an assumption somewhere that integer and pointer are the same size, that I will one day research and attempt to fix.
