I've tried to compile it and I had to hack a bit the source and the Makefile. You can donwload the efax sources at: http://www.cce.com/efax/ I've used the "stable" release: ftp://ftp.metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/apps/serialcomm/fax/efax-0.9.tar.gz I had to edit the "efaxio.c" source file adding: #define SIGIOT 6 then I had to edit efaxlib.h on line 94; this was a strange issue to me, I had to modify "O_TEXT=6" in "O_TXT=6". I also had to modify the Makefile to create an executable called "efax.exe" instead of a simple "efax". Now, the program seems to run, but it doens't recognizes /dev/modem as a device: $ ./efax.exe ./efax: Sun May 02 15:44:00 2004 efax v 0.9 Copyright 1999 Ed Casas ./efax: Sun May 02 15:44:00 2004 efax v 0.9 Copyright 1999 Ed Casas efax: 44:00 compiled May 2 2004 15:40:02 efax: 44:00 Error: can't open serial port /dev/modem: No such file or directory efax: 44:00 done, returning 2 (unrecoverable error) I tried to specify "com1" as a device but it hangs: $ ./efax.exe -d com1 ./efax: Sun May 02 15:44:04 2004 efax v 0.9 Copyright 1999 Ed Casas ./efax: Sun May 02 15:44:04 2004 efax v 0.9 Copyright 1999 Ed Casas efax: 44:04 compiled May 2 2004 15:40:02 efax: 44:05 opened com1 efax: 44:05 Error: tcgetattr on fd=3 failed: Not a typewriter Do you have any advice?
