I noticed a makefile for Ubuntu but I can't seem to get it to compile on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64 bit. I tried adding the Gtk2 package to the LDFLAGS but no luck. I think I tried to compile the Brandy Basic 5 for Linux a while back and it worked. This seems to be a fork of that.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Hi John,
Thanks for the message, yes this is a fork of Brandy Basic 5, I've been specifically targeting Windows using VCC 6.0 and Dos using DJGPP.
The Graphical version under of Brandy Basic built under Linux with GCC is REALLY slow due to the use of SDL to provide the graphics functions, I started by trying the SDL port under windows but gave up with it due to the lack of speed, I've re-coded these functions to write directly to a bitmap and then blit the bitmap to the screen, so my dos and windows versions are now very fast in comparison, this of course does not help you under linux, Sorry.
The Linux (Ubuntu) version will thus need rewriting to blit the bitmap to the screen and I've probably broken the linux build in the mean time, again Sorry but I did label my build as a windows port. I know the SDL bit Blit function is fast, I presume it's used in DOSBOX, so when I get round to it I'll probably use that and skip SDL's internal drawing functions.
I have not attempted to build under ubuntu for some time and I still have loads to do to complete this project for Windows and Dos, so please don't hold your breath as to when I'll fix a linux version.
I'm not a linux user or programmer so that will be a big learning curve for me, as and when I do get round to it.
On a side note, I'd be interested to know how my windows version runs under wine! if you know how to test that.
Regards
David

Hello David
I tried your Napolen Brandy basic before and i know that worked well using gdi
and i as author of micro(A) Interpreter use gdi graphics on windows win32.
