Try ``cc *.c */*.c'' and you will be told "DEFSHELL" must be defined to "1" or "2". Try ``cc -DDEFSHELL=1 *.c */*.c'' and make.h will not be found. So 1 minute of trying (w/o bothering to read the Makefile), one has the proper command. ``cc -DDEFSHELL=1 -I. *.c */*.c'' is also something that is pretty easy to post in an email message when people say they are having a problem. "Go find a working X.Y machine and grab bits from that." isn't as easy. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
