Nevertheless, when trying to compile MITScheme with X included (no problems without X, thanks to Bill Rozas), I keep getting the message /bin/ld: Can't locate file for: -lX11 I have tried symlinks to all conceivable directories,where the linker could look for libX11.a: /lib/X11, /usr/lib/X11, etc. The only reason I need this is to be able to use scheme's graphic interface to X. Does anyone have an easy answer? And while I am on the subject of MITScheme: Does anyone at NeXT work on fixing the emacs distributed with 2.0? Everything works but run-scheme!
