The fix is actually quite easy: look at the top few lines of one of the files that managed to compile. You'll see a #include preprocessor directive there (I think it's #include ). You'll notice that's not in the files that cause grc to crash (I think there are two files with that problem). Put it in and it should work! Note to whoever's busy with the port: you seem to have a bug. Sorry I forgot to report it earlier... >* "make" baulks at the makefiles with this message: "makefile:xxx: *** >missing separator. stop." This one's also easy: gnu make (at least the one that comes with DJGPP) wants a tab at the beginning of the command used to generate a target, as in: foo.o : foo.c foobar.h gcc -c foo.c If your editor's one of those that likes converting tabs to spaces (like DOS edit) you're stuffed. I would suggest emacs, but it's a bit bloated for my liking (I'm not a big lisp fan :). Try one called JED, the latest version emulates emacs quite well and it's nice and small(ish). >I did got one program to work but was unable to compile or linke the >resource file, and had to compile it by hand (samples\WHELLO). >Does anyone have any suggestions? >-/\/icholas >wzdd AT mailhost DOT net (for regular email) >nicholas AT ans DOT com DOT au (for files & lists) -- Fabian Nunez, Bachelor of Computer Science, University of Cape Town email:fnunez AT cs DOT uct DOT ac DOT za web: http://www.cs.uct.ac.za/~fnunez ---------------------------------------------------------------- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced
