I'm pretty new to C and I am just barely more than a user of Unix, so I am not all that familiar with the tricks needed to get the unix ports to work with OS/2. I have a generic 386/33, 64k/8meg/65megHPFS. I am taking an introductory course in C and I wanted to get some kind of package running on my home machine so I wouldn't have to go to the lab or wait for CPU time on the Unix machines. Initially I FTP'd the gcc201.zoo package and installed it. It didn't work. All I got was SYS 1808 exception 0006, whether I used my own code or the "hello world" sample included in the package. The fact that I couldn't look at the documentation killed the "if all else fails, read the manual" idea. I didn't have all that much time to spend on something I didn't understand, so I burned it off my drive. I then downloaded the EMX package and got that to work, but I've had an inclination toward fiddling with C++ and I got brave enough to try again. I FTP'd gcc21.zoo and installed it. Same damn thing. The installation docs are not especially informative. The pathnames are all in the config.sys. Thanks in advance andy -- hilmera@ucs.orst.edu Kiss a goat! Ack, pbbbttthhh!
