   GoldED on 64 bit?

   Hello andrew.

    ac> I'm using the 20160201 snapshot here on 64-bit FreeBSD. I've used it

    RC>> (Debian 8 or Testing...?)  I've been running a 32 bit version   
    RC>> (statically linked, IIRC) on a 32 bit Debian system for years   
    RC>> (ftn.rocasa.net, where 1:120/544 currently is) but need to move   
    RC>> that to another system as well as to get it running on my laptop,   
    RC>> both of which are 64 bit systems.   
      
    RC>> I was able to do a package build of the 20160201 snapshot with   
    RC>> warnings no apparent major issues (though the existing debian/   
    RC>> directory needs much updating...) and the package as built does   
    RC>> install but it doesn't actually run properly under either of the   
    RC>> two 64 bit Debian 8 systems I need to get it running on.  If   
    RC>> others are not seeing such issues on 64 bit Linux systems, I'll   
    RC>> update the debian build to add a debug symbols package and   
    RC>> install that to see if I can see where the problem is coming   
    RC>> from.   
      
    ac> What happens when you run it?   
      
      Depends on if it can find config files, apparently...  I have config files    
   for a crashmail maintained installation but there are issues with the 64 bit    
   version of crashmail (which haven't been tracked down yet) so although it    
   starts up, it errors out when attempting to select and read a message.  I have    
   another app capable of maintaining JAM messagebases, but I still need to set    
   up traffic to it so I can test that.  Note that if golded doesn't have a valid    
   config file pointing to messagebases, it doesn't do anything and just returns    
   to the command line?
