Re: GP runs on iOS

Hi Charles,

here are a few:

- turn the iSh Disable Screen Dimming Setting on

- install git (apt get git)

- install gcc

- clone the GP Git Project one the iSh Command line

- ./Configure

- make install

- let the compiler run for about 48 hours (don't forget to let the iPad’s power cord plugged in overnight)

- you might also want to enable iCloud access from iSh in case you’d like to share code with your MacOS version of GP

Best regards,

Philippe

PS this is off-topic, but I have also managed to install the following compilers/interpreters on iSh:

- EclipseClp (constraint-programming Prolog). Cf. http://eclipseclp.org/

- TXR (Common Lisp). https://www.nongnu.org/txr/

- D Compiler (C++-like language). https://dlang.org/download.html

- Mercury. https://mercurylang.org/ (Prolog)

- Bracmat (Common Lisp derivative). https://github.com/BartJongejan/Bracmat

That's fantastic, Philippe! Do you have any tips for others who might like to try compiling for the iPad?

Good morning,
For those that might be interested, I have managed to compile GP in the iSH VM on iOS on my IPad Air 3. It took 48 hours.
Best regards,
