Under strict rules, stethos might supply the source codes of ELP, if they are not fully compiled available here: ELP - Download
The compiled version is supplied by the distributors. Just in case, you are using an unsupported operating system, here are the steps to compile the sources:
-
Copy all provided source files into any directory of your work station.
-
All file names must be in lower case! Use "chmod 777 lower.bat" in order to be able to execute a small shell script, which converts all files from upper to lower case.
-
Be sure, that the first code lines in definit.h and convert.exe the command #define copy_unix is NOT surrounded by /* and */.
-
In order to compile the sources you need a full ANSI C compiler. The kernel compiler for HP UNIX work stations is NOT a full C compiler!
Compile and link in one command line like this: cc convert.c barcode.c tools.c -lm
The result is usually a file called a.out. Maybe you want to rename it to elp_convert.
To create directly a unique outfile name: cc convert.c barcode.c tools.c -lm /out:elp_convert -
Finally use "chmod 777 elp_convert" in order to make the file executable and try to execute it ./a.out or ./elp_convert
See ELP Command Line Arguments for full description for calling ELP.
