    Hi,

     In order to recompile&  modify KEGS32 using Visual C++ under
Windows, I'm looking for anyone having already built (re compile) the
project under Visual C++. I would be interested to get the project
specific files.

I was never able to get the KEGS32 source code to compile under vc++
(any variation). I primarily used vs6.0 (the pre .net version), but
there were tons of source incompatibilities.

IIRC, the biggest issues had nothing to do with the project file, but
the fact that the stdlib and 'unix' layer didn't mesh with the MS-
provided headers. I remember having issues dealing with things like
time_t, file handles, pathnames, etc.


A coupe of macro #ifdefs fixed the problems when compiling under VS.NET 2010. VS.NET is missing dirent.h (handles pathnames), but that was fixed with a quick download. Heck, I even got KEGS32 to compile as a 64-bit app, proof that its very portable.
