Will there be a PureBasic for Linux 64Bit?

I'd like to use PureBasic on my Linux(Athlon64) System!

?!

A Athlon64 is compatible to 32Bit.

Amd64 cpus are 32/64 bits contrary of the Intel Itanium wich is 64 bits only

But Linux 64Bit is NOT.
Anyway in complex calculations(Packer) 64Bit is FASTER than 32Bit!!!

And so: Linux64 is total useless..

99% of all Software are for 32Bit.

@Dummy

AMD64 runs just fine with 32bit applications (using a Athlon 64 3400+ woith SuSE 9.1 and both 32+64bit apps).

@GPI

Don't know what you base your experience on, but I am just fine saving 25% of time with a 64bit program that calculates for days usually - and I do not really care that it belongs to your 1% group.

When will PB run on my system?

Click 8O - page 2 for specs

I mean: Why no backward compatibilty? Athlon64 allow this! Thats why i think, that Intels's 64Bit is the wrong direction. Do you know, how many dos-programms are used under a Window XP System?

Not long a ago, MS would finish the support for Win98, but he don't do this for commercial users. Why? Many firms use win98.

Compatibility is the magic word and without this, nearly every new system is lost.

And I still ask: WHEN?

Can please Fred or Freak answer my question?

Wrong! It's quicker! That's what counts!

There are no plans for this yet.

uh..... 64 bit linux can run 32-bit binaries just fine...

a agree in two parts with GPI!

64 bit may be the future but as long as software ist 32 bit we should start to implent real floats, doubles and safed threads... in purebasic instead talking about 64 bit

Yep. Esp doubles!
