Lately, I have tried copying these codes to Linux and using the Linux gnu C++ compiler to compile them. Everything goes ok except for two things connected with the assembly language sections. First, the Linux gnu C++ compiler does not like \ (backslash) to end each line of assembly language. I do not know what it wants or expects. Second, the Linux gnu C++ compiler does not like the :'s (colons) which appear toward the end of each section of assembly language. I wonder if there is anyone out there who has tried copying C++ codes written for the Delore gnu C++ compiler to Linux and its gnu C++ compiler ( containing some assembly language) who can help me with this problem.
