need a couple of hours help, willing to pay

[John Arkison]

I have a project in Developer Studio C++ that I need to get working on Linux.  Three or four years ago somebody did a build for it on a Mac and I have that makefile.  I have a copy of Knoppix on a flash drive.  20 years ago or so I used Unix and gcc and emacs on a VAX system, but only for a year or two and not intensely.  So we need to get everything set up properly on the Knoppix system, a quick refresher in emacs, and as much of a build of the project as is possible in the time available.
