NitroCopy

NitroCopy is copy utility built for running on modern Linux systems and not so modern Windows systems, such as Windows 98 specifically.

Requirements

• CMake >= 3.12
• MinGW-w64 cross-compiler for 32-bit Windows, such as https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mingw-w64-crt-msvcrt which is the one I used. (I use Arch btw). It must come with msvcrt.
• GNU Make

How to build

For Linux

1. Create a build directory

mkdir -p build
cd build

2. Configure the build

cmake ..

3. Execute the build

cmake --build . --clean-first

Enjoy the build! The executable is in build/bin.

For Windows 9x

1. Create a build directory

mkdir -p build-win32
cd build-win32

2. Configure the build

cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../mingw-w64-i686-toolchain.cmake ..

3. Execute the build

cmake --build . --clean-first

Enjoy the build! The executable is in build-win32/bin.
