    yeold released this 2026-10-13 14:59:38 +00:00 | 21 commits to master since this release

    • The first full release. gork is free software under the GNU GPL,
      version 3 or later.
    • New: a 16-bit DOS build, gork-1.0-dos16.zip: real mode, 640K,
      for the 8086 and up, and for where no protected mode is to be had
      (Windows/386 2.x). A conversation is kept small there.
    • New: SPX. On an IPX network without TCP/IP, the DOS and Windows
      builds reach a relay with relay = spx:NET.NODE:SOCKET. The relay
      is gork-relay, a program of its own (github.com/yeold/gork-relay),
      which also does what the socat line did.
    • New: static Linux binaries for ten CPUs, gork-1.0-linux-*.tar.gz:
      amd64, i386, arm64, armhf, riscv64, s390x, ppc64el, powerpc, m68k
      and hppa.
    • Windows: gork-1.0-win32.zip is now the Cygwin build, packed to
      run without Cygwin, for 64-bit Windows 10 and later; it has MCP
      servers. The native build is gork-1.0-win32-legacy.zip, for
      everything back to Windows 95, and has none. It gains gorknt3.exe,
      for Windows NT 3.1 and 3.5.
    • Newly confirmed, the DOS build: MS-DOS 3.30 and 4.01, and DOS boxes
      under Windows 1.04, 2.03, 2.11, 3.0 and 3.1. The Windows build:
      Windows NT 3.1, 3.51, 4.0, 2000 and XP, Windows 95 and Me. Linux on
      m68k, powerpc and hppa.
    • Fixed: on MS-DOS 4.01 edit_file crashed inside DJGPP's stat().
    • Fixed: a Windows console showed non-ASCII text as its UTF-8 bytes.
    • Fixed: on 32-bit Linux, a directory on a file system with 64-bit
      inode numbers was listed as empty.
    • Fixed: the temporary file of a write has an 8.3 name on Windows too,
      which a FAT disk under Windows NT 3.1 needs.
    • Hardening, after a code scan: paths and the request head are no
      longer built in fixed buffers; ~/.gork/trusted is created readable by
      its owner only.
    • protocol = openai is confirmed against a real server.
    • README: a table of the tested systems, the packages, and which
      builds have MCP servers; the developer notes moved to docs/.
