I'm trying to make the serial libraries for PMCOM 1.0 (downloaded from
<ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2tk/pmcom10.zip>. However,
the makefile included throws up a dozen syntax errors, and I don't know
enough about makefiles (yet!) to correct them.

One error is on the second line of what I've quoted below:

ifdef _DEBUG
OUTPUTDIR = dbg
TARGET = dbg/com.a
GCCOPTIONS = -g -Wall -D_DEBUG
else
OUTPUTDIR = rel
TARGET = rel/com.a
GCCOPTIONS = -s -O1 -Wall
endif

(these are the first few lines of the makefile, so there isn't an error
above them causing a Mandelbug). I can't see an obvious syntax error: GNU
makefiles don't need "!"s, do they?

Has anyone had any better experience of compiling these libraries? Or does
anyone have any DOS/DJGPP binaries of libcom.a that I can use?

Many thanks,

J-P
