Using Hanno’s installation guide, I was able to compile i7 v10 on my RPi 4 4Gb w/4 cores this afternoon. (It consumed most of the afternoon). After installation, all checks including the “make check” test completed successfully. Yay! The only discrepancy was with the Robert Fripp - New Standard Tuning extension.
This is the first time I have ever been able to get i7 to work on an RPi and its Arm processor. The RPi version 4 is running the latest RaspOS 64 bit available. After completing the install the tests and check took about two hours to complete.
I am now in the “Now What?” mode.
Again, I will be following Hanno’s guide for story compilation. I must say it looks pretty complicated with multiple steps through the new system.
I did compile a working i7 - 10 game using a modified version of the ifhelpers scripts. That and the info mentioned earlier by Hanno.
It is great that we can now compile and run Inform7 with a Raspberrry PI. Wahoo! It is definitely a first for me. (i6 with the Standard Library and with Punyinform has been working for a while.)
