Watcom compiler installation

FOR WINDOWS

Fixe watcom OpenGL Syntax Error!

put OpenGl Modified / Fixed Files Incluse in more_Files/Windows

replace default WATCOM files
you need to place the files from the more_Files/windows directory inside the Open Watcom installation location
the default location is C:\WATCOM

FOR LINUX

Install Watcom and Configure Project for linux.

NOTE !

I am using Debian 12 , in case you are using another linux distribution , use some things as base

step 1

you need to extract open-watcom-c-linux-1.9 file
with unzip .

you need to install unzip or something of your choice, but here is unzip.

Unzip Installation

sudo apt-get install unzip

in the directory where you downloaded the file open-watcom-c-linux-1.9 put the following command

unzip open-watcom-c-linux-1.9 -d WATCOM

and will extract the files to the directory called WATCOM

after this process it is necessary to move this directory to

/usr/bin
with administrator permissions, move the WATCOM directory to getting like this /usr/bin/WATCOM

step 2

nano ~/.bashrc

you need a script and define Watcom Files path to linux put the code in .bashrc
and now put the entire code below inside the .bashrc file, open the .bashrc and at the end of it put the following code.

# Open Watcom 1.9 Path Script:
# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
export WATCOM=/usr/bin/WATCOM
export PATH=$WATCOM/binl:$PATH
export EDPATH=$WATCOM/eddat
export INCLUDE=$WATCOM/lh

after this , get WATCOM dir ADMIN .
