Requirements:
- Apple developer tools and X11
- compile the fpc ide
you need: compiler, rtl, (maybe base packages, fcl and extra packages), fvision and ide.
after the compilation of fvision, create an alias (symlink) of the directory fvision named fv in the fpc directory.
ln -s fvision fv
then compile the ide (there is no debugger library, just neglect the resulting warning)
cd ide make clean all
- install the vga font for xterm
download the vga font here: http://home.earthlink.net/~us5zahns/enl/vga.pcf
for more docs on changing the Xterm font look here: http://www.linux.org/docs/ldp/howto/Bash-Prompt-HOWTO/x606.html
copy the font to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/
mv your_download_dir/vga.pcf /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/
check and set file permissions (you have to be root to do this):
cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/ chown root:wheel vga.pcf; chmod 444 vga.pcf
start an xterm in X11 and do:
cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/ mkfontdir xset fp rehash
Now you should be able to start xterm with the vga font by:
xterm -font vga
It is useful to define this as a customized command in X11 (Menu Applications -> Customize...)
- start the ide in an xterm
cd your_path/fpc/ide ./fp
In order to get Alt-x you have to press ESC and x.
Here is an example image:
