Hi Guys

I trying to compile a program that I got off the net.

I initially used Turbo C/C++ compiler which compiled the prog fine. I
then tried to use gcc -o p.exe prog.c
This initially complained about a definition about :
    char far *gp; (It did not like far, I did not have ANSI turned on)

I then used gcc -o p.exe prog.c -traditional (This time the far keyword
went through, but now it complains about the 'const' keyword)

I cannot see any other switches that I need to switch on or off. I do
not even know whether it is a switch that I need to look for.

Your help will be appreciated.

Thanx
Pierre Bosman
