Is it possible to do the whole each-zone-running-from-one-bin-directory thing on Windows? If I try, it can't find any modules. 
Running bin\asss.exe test

Oh, and nobody's gotten it working with catid's biller, right?

Windows doesn't really have symbolic links.
I think it does work with catid's biller now, though I haven't confirmed that.

NTFS supports symbolic and hard links just fine. |

MGB, you're, like, my hero 5000 times over now. That's frickin' awesome.
And Suse, I would if I could! I only have the $$ for one comp right now! (Is 128MB of RAM enough to run suse linux on?)
Edit: Oops, it says "hero" now.

Give VMWare or Virtual PC demos a try. ASSS should compile under Cygwin too, which is a free option.
Most linux distros should work fine under 128meg ram. If you go with the option of dual booting or trying a live distro such as Knoppix/Gnoppix or one of live cd versions of Ubuntu or SuSE, it should work right out of the box without a problem.
The hardest part would be resizing NTFS. But I'd recommend against this route, since almost always when people try Linux out, they either need to force themselves to learn it (ie: no windows as a fail-safe) or need it on another machine. Dual booting usually leads towards failure of Linux and just wastes space. |

2 more problems! Woohoo!
1st Problem
Here's one that's been occurring for a while but I haven't been able to find a fix for.
If I use Ctrl+C:

D <main> unloading modules
E <deadlock> deadlock detected, aborting
abnormal program termination
Terminate batch job (Y/N)? y |
If I use ?shutdown:

E <deadlock> deadlock detected, aborting
abnormal program termination
asss out of memory. restarting. |
The startup stuff looks like this:

2nd Problem
This one only happens when I try the symbolic link thing:

Thanks.
Edit: Bah, simultaneous replies. I couldn't dual-boot because if I was going to run asss on a linux box, I would host it.  |

If you don't know about using Linux yet and want to learn more about it I suggest installing and using Gentoo.
The installation is completely manually so you need the handbook to install it, that's how you get to learn about the OS (so you'd be able to configure and tweak it).
Linux even ran fine for me on 64MB (well, without graphical installation). |

Will do, cyan. What email address should I ship it to? How large attachments can you accept? I can mail it in parts, if you like.
If that won't work, maybe I could fax it. |
