# fix watcom

obj/watcom/runner.exe wlink \\ @ "option quiet" "option stack=128k" 
"system dos4g" "name demo/demo.exe" "file obj/watcom/alleg/demo.obj" 
"library lib/watcom/alleg.lib"

'obj' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable 
program or batch file.
make: *** [demo/demo.exe] Error 1

That's where it stops, unless the / are switched to \ in the makefile 
for RUNNER.

Same thing as above... except that it flew by the few errors and didn't 
stop. (Ie, it posted the "obj" not found message, but continued anyway.)

Also, to fix this, (in addition to the same / \ conversion above) I had 
to replace a line in makefile.wat from:

obj/watcom/runner.exe: src/misc/runner.c

to:

$(RUNNER): src/misc/runner.c

(I do not think I had to do this in 2000, but I possibly just built the 
runner.exe the first time, got the error, switched the / to \ and ran 
make again.)

DJGPP on Windows 98

success! DJGPP didn't care if it had \ or / in RUNNER.

All three environments are on the same physical machine.
