It didn't help -- I am nearly illerate at make (I have some other system knowledge of linking objects and library's etc so I do know some of the terminology) so all I am doing is trying to parse it out logically and systematically trying ideas as I interpret the suggestions like "try to add..." or "order is backwards..." No one's fault but mine and perhaps the original author, but then the software is free so that just leaves me. > > Full original make file (it you care to see it, it's here): > > > > # Makefile for CRM114 > > Wow.

I am not qualified to have an opinion, I just want it to make and run. -- Herb Martin -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
