harpoon.exe

Where can I find the harpoon.exe after installation??

[andreldm]

For windows you don't need to install, just grab the built executable and move it to wherever you want.

[kooijman599]

But where can I find the executable then? Sorry, it will be a silly question, but I don't get it.

[andreldm]

You need to compile the project itself, here are the instructions, I don't provide a ready to download binary and at the moment I don't have any windows machine to build it for you. If you install MSYS2 and copy&paste the commands it should work just fine.

[kooijman599]

I did earlier. But I really don't know where to like after compiling the project for the .exe file. I searched my whole machine, but there seems to be no harpoon.exe

[andreldm]

Once you compile the executable is in the project directory, you can open it with explorer .

[andreldm]

Ok, so I decided to not only build the executable as well as make RGB and DPI values parametrized via program arguments:

harpoond.zip

This is the branch (see its README.md) for the new changes, please let me know if it works as intended before I push them into master.

[kooijman599]

Unfortunately, the executable starts, but immediately stops again according to Windows Task Manager.

[andreldm]

Is any error printed if executed from the windows console?

[kooijman599]

No, it just tells: "interrupted" and then rapidly disappear from the Task Manager.

[andreldm]

Then it's a dead end for me, I don't have a windows machine, on a VM the executable is stuck, if I add setbuf(stdout, NULL) messages are printed normally, but without the mouse (I threw it away a long time ago) it's next to impossible to troubleshoot.

I'm sorry but I can't really help, if you can manage to make it work please let me know.
