Note, that if you have MIPSco cc version 2.10 or greater, you can build with -O[234], but you will need to do some other hackery to the Makefile to be able to achieve -O[34]. You can find the version of your compiler by using the command (csh) 'cc -V foo.c |& grep Mips'. - Marc -- =========================================================================== Marc Evans - WB1GRH - evans@decvax.DEC.COM | Synergytics (603)635-8876 Unix and X Software Contractor | 21 Hinds Ln, Pelham, NH 03076 ===========================================================================
