Hello, OS/2 world! I have downloaded the GCC 2.2.2 files from ftp-os2.nmsu.edu two days ago. Is it possible that the archive gcchdr.zoo (259273 bytes) lacks the subdirectories gcc/gcc-include/sys and gcc/gcc-include/machine completely? Ok, that's just a minor glitch because the Readme says you can keep the header files from the 2.1 version. But is it possible to correct this Archive to avoid frustrated new-installers? Another thing strikes me - some of the manual pages seem to be garbage. I used groff (EMX Port, posted some days ago), the man01.cmd (from the MAN package also posted to c.b.o). Instead of less, I used more. I could page through groff's own MAN pages correctly, but most GCC 2.2.2 mans were garbage. I also tried nroff and other tools that can format MAN pages. Yes, I tried all macros - and yes, the zoo archive tested without errors. Does anyone here know what I did wrong - or did anyone experience the same problems? Where can I contact the person that compiles the GCC 2.2.2 package? Thanks, Thomas Opheys -- Thomas S. Opheys opheys@eva.fmi.uni-passau.de "Dachse? Dachse?
