I spent last weekend trying to make the vt100 emulator (version 2.2) work
under Lattice.  I had moved the source code over to my Amiga the weekend
before and had applied all the patches from the summary posted to the net.
I was stopped by switches on the "cc" commands in the makefile, which I
didn't think were appropriate for Lattice, so I sent a query to Dave Wecker
who cleared up my problem.

I compiled it using lc1 and lc2 commands with no switches.  I got the GURU
Meditation listed in the next paragraph (Same exact numbers).  So, on a
guess, I upped the stack to 12000 and compiled it again.  This time it
compiled, so I tested it.  And changed the switches and compiled it.  And
tested it.  And changed the switches.  And tested it.  Every possible
combination of Lattice switches.

EVERY time I executed it I got a "Software Error" alert.  When I "Cancel"ed
the alert, I got a GURU Meditation of 00000004.000097B0.  Without fail and
before it did anything else.  I even added "printf"s to the beginning of
the program and they never even showed up.  I conclude from this that the
program is not doing anything weird, rather that the compiler and linker
syntax I used is wrong.  (I also tried executing it with various stack
sizes.)

Does anyone have any idea what is going on?
