I take a look at it, in fact i used the Makefile as starting point.

I didn't knew if i had to try to leave the resulting work directory as something clean for someone else to figure (say, someone who wants to know about the source of Mesa, or want to learn how to use Makefiles etc). May be i must care about the thing compiling/running/installing ... and keeping it in a reasonable size :-). (?) I'll try to get it smaller, and download it today. (Probably in this week i will not have spare time to finish it, and I WANT to finish it :-). By the way, you answered my mail REALLY soon. :-). -cristian ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cristian Ferretti S. email: cfs@numero1.puc.cl
