I extracted the archive and the PZST executable ran fine, so I think all that is required to make it install on x64 systems is a modification to the package.

Yes, that is correct. I have found that it is the way skype is packaged for amd64 - it is the same as for i386, except architecture and dependencies list.

FC15 X64, no luck initially, missing two items:
libQtGui.so.4 => not found
libQtCore.so.4 => not found
Has the serial terminal function been implemented yet? Not sure looking through the thread. Otherwise I really like PZST so far. If it's there, just tell me and I will go visit my optometrist....
Just downloaded and played with 1.0.1 on Ubuntu, seems to work Eagerly await version with a serial terminal (which is usually essential for the stuff I do...) behaviour like BST's serial window would be nice.
Like the download progress bar, BTW, and the compiled object stats.
Sure enough Jon BSTC, which PZST uses, chokes on that declaration. Does not like a negative there.
However if you put the -1 in round brackets it compiles correctly.
Amazing find considering that BradC has compiled all of OBEX with BSTC for testing.
Hi,
I have the unable to open port error message on the bottom right corner, when I try to detect the propeller. However this works well when using the official propeller tool. Any idea?

I had a problem with the statement "repeat -exp10" in BST. I changed it to "repeat 0-exp10" to get it to work. However, "repeat (-exp10)" would be better if that works.
Just noticed that there seem to be two font sizes going on in the editor. One for the line numbers and tab stop markers and one for the program text being edited.
The former font size can be changed with CTRL+ and CTRL-, the latter can be changed from the editor prefences dialog box. They are changed indedently.
This has the disturbing result that unless both font sizes are matched up the tab stop markers do not appear in the right positions relative to the code blocks.
As with any great product the users always want more...
I have a little wish list:
1) A serial terminal output window that opens automatically after compilation/download.
2) A means of getting at the compiler listing output.
3) Being able use PZST on an ARM board running Linux.
The last of these probably requires that PZST can optionally use Homespun as the compiler. I have had success running HomeSpun on my ARM boards under Mono.
Hi all !
I've been busy, and did not visit the forums for long time, and was not able to continue work on PZST. The good news is that I will continue the work in late February.
Andrey,
That's great news. I have been suggesting PZST to everyone I see who turns up here with Prop Tool/BST issues.
Now that we have GCC working for the Propeller how would it be to add C project decelopment to PZST?
That's a lot to ask but propgcc could do with an IDE that is as drop dead simple as the one used for Arduino but is as slick as PZST. For the beginners, hobbyists and casual programmers.

Yep.
I've also asked for PZST to have a cross-platform PST clone (have asked this of Brad for BST as well).
I started looking closer at the PZST project. A problem I hit right away from the windows download (aside from Norton always throwing my file away!) was not being able to find a propeller using F7. Has anyone seen or overcome this problem?
I wasn't able to build the latest because of the scintilla dependency - may need to figure that out later ....

Updating, then will look for these .....

So from the terminal, you can run...
yum search qt-x11 (will show 32/64 versions, you need .i686)
sudo yum install qt-x11.i686
Just ran:
yum install qt.i686 qt-x11.i686 libXv.i686 libXScrnSaver.i686
(actually same stuff to get skype up on X64)
All is running at this point. Nice layout on the IDE.
Google and Forum members.... What else is there?

Thanks for the excellent work!

Andrey said in a post somewhere that this was the next thing on his list.
