Of course, you need to do a few things before you compile it. Here's the notes on how to proceed, assuming you have complete sources for Elm 2.3 PL 11: Notes on compiling Elm on NeXT/Mach 2.0 20 Jan 91 The man pages go in /usr/lib/man/mann by default; if it doesn't exist already, su needs to create that directory. While running Configure: When asked about more compiler flags, answer: -bsd -fwritable-strings . When asked about additional libraries, answer: -lsys_s . When asked about where the cc library is because Configure can't find it, answer: /lib/libsys_s.a . Before running make: In /src/out_utils.c, comment out STRPBRK, because it's defined in libsys_s.a . (I have a copy in which this has been done.) Manually add a #define STRPBRK to config.h . Then go ahead with make all as noted in Instructions. -- Jess Anderson <> Madison Academic Computing Center <> University of Wisconsin Internet: anderson@macc.wisc.edu <-best, UUCP:{}!uwvax!macc.wisc.edu!anderson NeXTmail w/attachments: anderson@yak.macc.wisc.edu Bitnet: anderson@wiscmacc Room 3130 <> 1210 West Dayton Street / Madison WI 53706 <> Phone 608/262-5888
