Hi all

Can't find my original media of Blinker3.3 (I licensed it ~30 years ago) and need to rebuild a big Clipper5.2 project that was linked with that version. BlinkInc is out of business and haven't been able to find that sw.

Any hints ?

Cheers from Chile !

Good day Robert,

Hmmm that might be an issue. The closest I can suggest is to look at harbour as an alternative compiler for the interim. In the long run, I would suggest you look at XSharp.

Good luck,

Dear robert...:

Blinker appears to be unobtainium. This appears to be an "alternative", and I have not tried it:

Harbour or xHarbour should accept your code with few modifications (xHarbour should be fewest), and you will have a 32-bit Windows console application when you are done. There is a newsgroup for xHarbour: comp.lang.xharbour, and there is a UDF that you can locate there for swpruncmd, if your code uses it.

Got it .. Thank you !
It just did some brief tests and appears to work fine. Tomorrow I'll try to rebuild the entire project.
I'm grateful beyond words.

The link refers to Warplink.

Some while back I ended up using Warplink - not sure why because I'm
fairly sure at the time that I had the relevant version of Blink
around but I ended up preferring Warplink and if memory serves me
right it was a good sight faster.

I think I may still have my Blinker installed files laying about somewhere. Not sure what version it is. I can check if you like.

reply here, or to Kirby LW AT yahoo dot com
