    Default ADOM in cygwin

    Has anyone successfully run any version of ADOM in cygwin?
    I said it before, and I'll say it again. If I knew scripture like you, I'd prolly be an athiest too.. -gut

    Haven't tried. But I'm curious to know why you'd want to?

    "Whip me!" pleads the adom player. The rng replies... "No."

    Nope, it was for streaming ttyrecordings but after I tried messing around with getting ADOM to work in cygwin (and failing), I would rather just do it on a linux machine.

    Like wine, just the other way around.
    Of course it's unfair - that's the whole point.

    And just as pointless, given the ease of implementing a virtual machine.

    Seriously, you have no idea what you're talking about.

    EDIT: Or at least I strongly suspect that I know more about virtualization and compatibility/emulation layers than you. Whatever.
    EDIT 2: It might not be complicated to setup a Linux VM, but do you really want to run a whole fucking OS just for a roguelike? I don't.
    EDIT 3: Or are you referring to the DOSBox kind of VMs? Well thats a lot like cygwin, not quite, but roughly as lightweight.

    Perhaps for your needs - not for everyone's.

    I was toying with the idea of setting up an ADOM "channel" or whatever they're called with termcast and the TV script. It plays ttyrecs from a directory. Anyone who frequents termcast.org might've noticed "Test ADOM Channel" or "ADOM-TV" pop up occasionally.
