(From "The Masked Rat Fink"   "Computing and Informatics Yr4")

Dear Netters,

Being a beginning C programmer, I have managed to coax my copy of Sozobon
Version 1.01 to compile, link and all that sort of stuff on single files.
However I have not used anything other than the supplied CC utility, to
drive all the other elements (hcc and top etc) and especially I haven't
yet managed to get 'make' to work. This has slowed to a total halt my efforts
to compile up the version 1.2 of Sozobon (supplied in source format only :-(

I have tried to use the make facility on the supplied files. I had my normal
Soz C work disk in the A drive and the 1.2 source in a ram disk, installed
as drive d:. I then made the source files the active window and ran the make
utility by selecting it using the right-left double click technique and then
selecting open from the desktop. But it still didn't work.

I would be mega obliged if someone could take the time to explain where I
went wrong, so that I can actually perform the upgrade. I have no objections
to anyone calling me a wally for getting something obvious wrong, but as far
as C is concerned I have to ask these questions! :-)

I do have a copy of the Gulam shell, but I haven't used it very much yet.
However I will dig it out and blow the dust off it if necessary.

Many thanks in advance

TMRF

PS To the authors of Sozobon, I read your request for news of anyone who was
   using your software. Well ... I'm trying to do my final year project in it,
   so I guess that I count as a user (perhaps a developer!?) of your product.
