I am trying to compile lynx 2.7 under DOS, with djgpp. I've been in
touch with the author, and he seemed to think it wouldn't work, and that
it wouldn't be able to keep up with the libwww.a versions. I think it
could, with say a sed script to change all of the LFN refs, but I've done
that by hand this time.
However, I can get everything to make except libwww.a, because it needs
the file .created. However, when I change the (LOB)/.created to
(LOB)/created or _created, I get:
make commonma: 149, missing separator, stop.
commonma is commonmakefile, in www/library/implementation, which gets
changed to www/library/implemen. I've changed all the refs in the
makefile as well.
So far, as far as I can tell, I get .o files for all the stuff I've made
so far. It just fails on the make of lynx itself because it needs
libwww.a. BTW, I can post the makefile, it needed. Somebody, help?
I'd really like to be able to make lynx under DOS, reliably, because
otherwise I'm dependant on somebody else to make changes, etc. I
personally don't see why it must be restricted to being made with win95
simply because it depends on LFN. Surely there's some way around this?
