I added two lines in c4.c surrounding the
#include <unistd.h>
with
to make c4 compile and run under Windows/Visual Studio, since
unistd.h
does not exist under Windows/Visual Studio (it is a very UNIX-specific header). Note that despite looking otherwise the macro_WIN32
is defined both when the conpilation target is 32 bit and 64 bit (cf. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/b0084kay.aspx for reference) - thus adding this line does not add a future liability to consider when it should be planned to port c4 to 64 bit.I also added instructions to README.md in similar spirit to the existing guidelines how to do the same "experiments" in a suitable "Command Prompt for VS 2017".
