Xenix programs can be ported to Windows as well as other OSs as required. Will you please let me know of any specific concerns? I do development with C++, for engineering native solutions. Let's cite specific milestones, while I look through the sources attached.

I am very proficient in c and c++. I have 16 years c++ developing experience now, and have worked for more than 7 years. My work is online game developing, and mainly focus on server side, using c++ under Linux environment. I made many great projects using c++, for example, I made the tools which could convert java codes into c++ scripts, of course garbage collection included, this was very similar to a compiler, and was very complex. I also made our own mobile game using c++, I can show you the demo of client, if you like. I am very proficient in java also. I have a very good review on Freelancer.com, I never miss a project once I accept the job, you can check my review. Trust me, please let expert help you.

Hello. I am an experienced C/C++ programmer. I have already the project porting experience between windows and linux. Asterisk Open Source project is one of them. Following is my question about your project. 1. Do you want to port every tar file ( eng2x, eng3x, eng4new, eng41, engineer) or one of them? 2. Could you tell me the outline of the program ported? I think I am confident of your project. Thanks.

Dear Employer I already took a look at the attached tar files and have found that the source code of the programs "engineer" and "gear1-5" only need some minor modifications to be compiled on a modern Linux environment (I testet with Debian/Ubuntu). So I was already able to successfully run the Engineer program in a Linux terminal. Maybe the use of Linux (for example in a virtual machine) is already sufficient for your needs? Or would it be sufficient if the program runs on Windows as a console application in the command line (like it does on a linux terminal)? The three days refer to a linux version and include a safety margin in case of unforeseen difficulties, ideally it should go much faster. Best regards

I have a lot of experience working on linux software and have ported some applications to work on Windows. Do you have source code for your program? What programming language was it written in? I can work on the project and you can pay me when it works.

1. Do you only want to run this software in Linux/Windows or both of them? 2. Do you have some acceptance test cases to check whether it works or not?
