Could someone please steer me in the right direction as to getting the proper source code to get this to build on a Raspberry Pi running Raspbian. Every readme and tutorial I come across results in failure lol

MBSE's internal FSED has some quirks that I don't like .. mainly with keyboard controls (movement, etc)

Any help would be greatly appreciated

The one I built from current source in April of 2017 can be downloaded from:

http://cmech.dynip.com/gedrpi.zip

I don't recall any problems building it {shrug} though everything has it's quirks here and there lol :) If you just want to build it yourself I can look some more and probably find the source code I used on an SD card somewhere.

I compiled it some time ago without any issues.
What exact problem do you see?
(see next post ... where somebody sent you a link ... I used the official source and had no issue to compile on rpi and odroid)

Here's what I did to make it running without any problems.

Make sure you have all the necessery packages installed.
sudo apt install build-essential git libncurses5-dev zip

Git is not required, but I just prefer to git clone golded from github repo. Which is:
https://github.com/golded-plus/golded-plus

From the directory where you would like to store source files run this
git clone https://github.com/golded-plus/golded-plus.git

Cd into golded-plus and run ./dist-gpl.sh, just make sure that it is flagged as
executable.
If not "chmod +x dist-gpl.sh" it first.

That's it. You'll have binaries in the "bin" directory and zipped dist in the sources root dir.
I copy binaries to /usr/local/bin, where my husky binaries resides.
You would probably need to copy gedlnx, gnlnx and rddtlnx (if you need it) binaries.
There also will be a "golded" bash script which supposed to be some kind of launcher
that suppose to fix issues with CP866 charset, it requires "screen" package to be installed to run,
but I don't use it. I just start golded with gedlnx.

Don't forget to place configs into ~/.golded, you will find config samples in the golded-plus dir
you cloned earlier. There is also a ways to change the default config file location.

Please note that golded won't start without proper config (golded.cfg) in the right place.

Sorry if I wasn't clear enouht, I'm lousy at explaining stuff :)

Thanks.. I'll try that one out and see if it works for me.

You could just drop us a line and let us know what's going on. I don't use the FSED myself as I like joe a lot.

It doesn't seem to understand cursor control codes when someone is using an Amiga telnet client (DCTelnet) .. and when using standard telnet client it doesn't seems to recognize them properly either, it either prints strange characters, or does nothing at all .. I might have to resort to using Joe until
I can get this GoldEd+ problem figured out..

*THAT* was the reason my golded wasn't working!

For basic configuration

gedlnx -INSTALL

could be used. For more options start "gedlnx -?". Most interesting for first install would be

-C<configfile> Use a different configuration file.
-D Disable old obsolete configuration keywords.
-INSTALL[=path] Start the quick install procedure. Look in path, if given.
-V or -VV Verbose or Very verbose (-VV) config compile.
Use -VV to debug.

If anyone wants to master golded configuration i would recommend the seperate documentation archive.

Well, that shows nothing, and that's why I thought that my compilation
failed. In windows and os/2 the is a proper "golded.cfg not found" error message.

No. Same here if i start without golded.cfg in correct place.

Same here.

"cat nul" no visible output. I need "nano nul" to see:

That is a known issue of the rushed ncurses implementation and the DOS legacy.
