Thanks for the reply and your efforts! I'll probably try some of this starting tomorrow afternoon, but, just for the record, the programmer did fine -- he modified the program and got it working on his Ubuntu system, and created a binary for me. The problem now is to get the binary to work on my Wheezy or Jessie system. Of course, looking at what you did, maybe I should get the source of his changes and then try compiling it myself (in a sid chroot). I guess the C++ in sid is C++17? (I'm not sure how much code in scite / scintilla actually uses C++17 features, nor if the lexer he is writing for me uses C++17 features.) > > I created a sid chroot, then did the following: > > apt install -y build-essential less vim libgtk2.0-dev mercurial > hg clone http://hg.code.sf.net/p/scintilla/code scintilla > hg clone http://hg.code.sf.net/p/scintilla/scite scintilla-scite > cd scintilla/gtk/ > make > cd ../../scintilla-scite/gtk/ > make > > After that, I copied scintilla-scite/bin/SciTE into the root directory > (/) in a wheezy and a jessie chroot.
