I am quite new to the concept of GNU yet I very much like the idea. Anyhow, I am trying fruitlessly to compile a copy of GNU-Emacs 18.57 on our system here at Federal Systems of Canada in Ottawa. Our hardware is a Mylex 486. The operating system is AT&T Unix System V release 3.2. I find the directions for compilation quite cryptic and sparse. I would appreciate it if you could direct me as to how to compile it. We only have the standard compiler and linker that comes with the OS. I usually manage to get things compiling OK until it get to the sysdeps.c module. Then all hell breaks loose. Another problem is that the compiler keeps giving me tons of warnings as to unexpected characters following the #endif directive and identifier names being truncated. Thank you for your help.
