chimplink turns Actually Portable Executables into a safe, text-only hybrid between Windows batch and Unix sh scripts which allows for self-extraction and execution on Windows, Linux, MacOS, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, DragonFlyBSD, Solaris, and more. chimplink itself is a Chimp executable file, and targets the following platforms:
| Operating system | Hardware architecture |
|---|---|
| Linux | x86_64, i386, aarch64, riscv64, s390x, powerpc64le, loongarch64 |
| Windows | x86_64 |
| MacOS | x86_64, aarch64, powerpc |
| FreeBSD | x86_64, aarch64 |
| NetBSD | x86_64, aarch64 |
| OpenBSD | x86_64, aarch64 |
| DragonFlyBSD | x86_64 |
| Solaris | x86_64 |
New features and enhancements:
- Adds support for embedding MacOS powerpc loaders in Chimp executables.
- Adds MacOS 10.4+ powerpc support for the published
chimplinkexecutable. - Extends the Chimp file convention to define the environment variable
CHIMP_REAL_ARG0, which can be used by the embedded APE to find the path of the Chimp executable.
