Hello,

I tried to compile firstchess.c from http://devwebcl.atarionline.pl/cc65/ when trying to compile getting this error message:

Code: Select all

 gcc Documents/firstchess.c
Documents/firstchess.c:18:19: fatal error: conio.h: No such file or directory
 #include <conio.h>
                   ^
compilation terminated.


What system are you trying to compile on? conio.h is a file available on MS Windows, describing routines that are available in MS-DOS. A Windows compiler should know where to find it.

Hm, I use Ubuntu 13.10 and it would be interesting if Firstchess would work in Linux because it should have a command line interface. But then again, maybe it is only intended for windows..

I know this response is a little late, so maybe you've solved your issue. If not, perhaps you can try this Linux specific version of conio.h, which I think maps to the ncurses library:
