I'm having trouble building the recent ZIPs with gnu make
(ftp-os2:/pub/os2/2.0/programming/gnumk362.zip) and dmake 3.8.  Perhaps
someone could help me?

I'm no makefile maven, but it appears makefile.os2 uses make to call
itself with command line parameters built in the first pass through
makefile.os2.  These command line arguments are in quotes, so for ex.,
"gcc ..." rather than gcc ....  OS/2 responds with messages saying that
it wasn't given a batch file or executable name.  makefile.os2 makes
reference to gnu make, but perhaps there are several versions floating
around out there.  Maybe someone could point me to one that works?

I tried dmake (ftp-os2:/pub/os2/all/programming/dmake38x.zoo) as well,
but that seems to want a dmake.ini, a sample of which is not included
in dmake38x.zoo.  I used -r to suppress the search for dmake.ini, but
that didn't work either, as in:

D:\temp dmake -r -f makefile.os2 gcc
f makefile.os2 zips \
        CC="gcc -O" \
        CFLAGS="-DOS2" \
        AS="gcc" \
        ASFLAGS="" \
        LDFLAGS="-o ./" \
        LDFLAGS2="-s -los2" \
        OUT="-o" \
        OBJ=".o" \
        OBJA="matchgcc.o" \
        DEF="zip.def"
dmake:  Error -- f: No such file or directory

If someone could send me their dmake.ini, that might be helpful.

If someone could clue me to a solution, I'd be much obliged.  Thanks.
