Re: [AD] djgpp compilation problems

Bogdan,

You may want to check which version & release of Bash you are using. I would
use Bash 2.05. The exe should be dated 5-Nov-2001, I uploaded the files onto
the unofficial DJGPP WIN 2K / XP site on 7-Nov-2001.

This may or may not help, but it may eliminate one program out of the
equation.

Another item to check is which "echo.exe" you have in the bin directory.
Could you let me know the size in bytes, date and the output or lack of when
trying to get help with the --help or /? options. There is the posibility
that I have put the wrong echo in the binary files that you downloaded. I
have included some allegro header files in some of the files when I
shouldn't have.

DJGPP 2.04 has NOT been released, the version available from
http://clio.rice.edu/djgpp/win2k/main.htm is an alpha version. Could you let
me know via a direct email how it works on ME so I can update the URL to let
people know how it works. One BIG thing to watch is do not mix 2.03 exe's
and 2.04 exe's as the symlink support is incompatible and will cause you
some headaches.

Regards,
Andrew
