Quick fix: find the bits in rcsbase.h labeled and just comment them out. I compiled mine with GCC. Having GCC makes compiling programs off the net, etc much easier, so you might as well get it. It'll save you a lot of hassle fighting with SCO's compiler. Binaries + patches relative to 1.37.1 are available from unix.secs.oakland.edu:/pub/xenix/gcc/* and probably for anonymous UUCP from anomaly.sbs.com. unix.secs.oakland.edu: -- Ronald Khoo +44 81 991 1142 (O) +44 71 229 7741 (H)
