Assuming your using the Cygnus GCC port.. make sure you downloaded all_tar.gz (the reason being that you will have ALL the GNU executables) and windows32api-0_1_2_tar.gz (although i think the very latest version of Cygnus-GCC has windows32api built in) - and have it setup correctly - that can be a real swine sometimes - if you want help with this try checking out http://www.fu.is.saga-u.ac.jp/~colin/mingw32.html once you've done that look at the FTP site for circle-gnu.README (i think its at ftp.circlemud.org/pub/CircleMUD/win95) and read that. Make the modifications noted and it should work fine.. If i have time, i'll zip up the current setup of Cygnus-GCC and stick it on a site (gonna have to read licenses and stuff first though) and also a version of circlemud thats stock except for the modifications made for Cygnus-GCC.. if you have any specific problems, (i.e the mingw32.bat file gives errors like 'out of environment space' etc) give me an email at vexed@gconnect.com and i'll try and help. The command line for compiling?.. make or nmake (whilst in the src directory). If it hasn't been modified for Gygnus-GCC it won't work though, you also have to make sure that you have a path going to all the GNU executables. GAWD.. im really gonna have to improve my email writing, how many open/close brackets (or whatever you want to call them ;) in there? :) Regards, Paul BTW. don't try using the dos version of GCC it doesn't work.. - A boy's will is the wind's will, - And the thoughts of youth are - long, long thoughts. - Longfellow, My Lost Youth. +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://cspo.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list_faq.html | | Or send 'info circle' to majordomo@cspo.queensu.ca | +-----------------------------------------------------------+
