FozzTexx on Nostr: I don't think Open Watcom actually works, at least not if you compile it yourself. ...
I don't think Open Watcom actually works, at least not if you compile it yourself. That means the only way to use it is a pre-built binary, only available for DOS/Windows, which is not what I'm interested in. This is just a simple hello_world.c and should easily compile, not spew out errors complaining that libraries are missing and there's no main() function (“_small_code_ is an undefined reference”).
