Dear Anthony, Excellent news! I copied the Makefile to https://leti.lt/bolprocessor/test.php, logged in under ssh and ran the "make" command. It started well but stopped at this stage: $ make gcc -c -I source/BP2 -include source/prefix/PrefixANSIDebug.h source/BP2/Arithmetic.c -o source/BP2/Arithmetic.o make: gcc: command not found Makefile:93: recipe for target 'source/BP2/Arithmetic.o' failed make: *** [source/BP2/Arithmetic.o] Error 127 I understand that my account does not yet have a gcc compiler although it is eligible for running one. I tried the same with a "hello.c" tiny program and got the same diagnosis. Old discussions on the OVH forum (my provider) claim that gcc is available on this type of account. I am a bit confused about installing it… Should I simply upload a binary from: https://gcc.gnu.org/install/binaries.html ??? First steps are always slow ;-) I am planning to create a googledoc summarizing your suggestions for future development along with links to resources and documentation. This will help me to investigate these new paths, both in terms of developing a console application (which we started naming "BP3") and going further to a stand-alone application, namely "BP4". These ideas may attract more developers but we need to decide to what extent if could be public (read-only or comment).
