Hi,
At http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/1999-05/msg00737.html
I found:
Microsoft has very nicely made available
nmake15.exe, which is the NT3.5 vc++ 2.0 version
of nmake. You can retrieve this from either
ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/Softlib/MSLFILES/NMAKE15.EXE or
ftp://unix.hensa.ac.uk/mirrors/ftp.microsoft.com/Softlib/MSLFILES/NMAKE15.EX

About porting Unicon:
I found the idea fun, interesting an challenging.
So i downloaded Unicon and LCC Win32. I have an NT 4.0 (SP 4) workstation.
I use MSVC 5.0 (SP 3). My version of MDAC was very old, so i installed a
more
recent one.
[ Note: one of the pdf has a bad crc and gdbm.h is read-only. ]
I then tried to build Unicon with MSVC5.0,
rtt.exe display usage info ( no real test )
mwiconx.exe can't read interpreter file header
wiconx.exe crash
wicont.exe display usage information ( no more test ).
and there are no other exe in the bin dir.
I then tried to compile with LCC Win32, Wow, now the real fun begun.
The lcc-make program is not very happy with the !include directives
So, i decided to continue with nmake.
I had to produce a new set of makefiles for lcc. I had also to modify some
of the sources files to make them compile.
For now i have:
src\preproc\ compile ok, pp.exe seems ok
src\common, compile ok
src\icont does not compile
src\iconc does not compile
src\wincap does not compile ( lcc gives errors when msvc give
warnings )
i am lookin for wincap32.
src\rtt compile, produce an exe which do not crash but not ok...
I am hooked, i cant stop, i must see the end of this....
When i will have a complete set of makefiles, i will come back, with some
answers and some questions.
This means that the configurations files for LCC Win32 are on their way !
For sure, i'll see the end of it !
Cheers.
Marc C�t�.
