   I've read the posts about the missing separator error that people get when
trying to compile the GRX library, but the error I'm getting doesn't seem
to be because of spaces instead of a tab.  I downloaded a microEmacs just to
be sure, and now I don't know what to do because it definitely isn't that
problem.

The error I get is:
makefile.gcc:7: *** missing separator.  Stop.

The first few lines of the makefile (since the makefile program doesn't look
ahead) are the following (the arrow and comment aren't in the file):

#
# MAKEFILE.GCC
#   for building the DJGPP version of the GRX library
#   usage: make [-DPLANE=<planes>] [-DMODEL=<Turbo C memory model>] [-DDEBUG]
#

!if !$d(MODEL)    <---- This is line #7.
MODEL = 1
!endif

....

etc.


   I don't know what to make of this error and I want to recompile the 
library so I can add masking capability to the bitblt functions.


Thanks,
