Hi there,

I'm having problems installing epoch on my machine.

Version:        epoch-4.2
Platform:       Apollo under Domain/OS on a 400t
                Domain/OS kernel(12), revision 10.3.5.6, April 3, 1992  4:19:40 pm
Compiler:       Domain C compiler 68K Rev 6.8(168)
Nonstandard:    Using Xdomain off an SR10.4 node.
                c 1 Xdomain_A.04.03   1992/02/15 10:48:42 GMT (Sat)  /etc/Xdomain

I've generated an s-apollo.h file containing the following :

        #define BSD4_3
        #define SYSTEM_TYPE "berkeley-unix"
        #define FIRST_PTY_LETTER 'p'
        #define HAVE_PTYS
        #define BSTRING
        #define MAIL_USE_FLOCK
        #define CLASH_DETECTION

I made the following updates to the code.

        Removed win_gravity lines from screen.c. Not supported by xutil.h.
        Added request_sigio and unrequest_sigio dummy functions to keyboard.c.
            They don't exist on my platform and are required even though 
            INTERRUPT_INPUT is not defined.

The following is encountered when running build-install :

./temacs -batch -l ../epoch-lisp/inc-vers

*** Exit 255

Stop.
*** Exit 1

Stop.
+ exit 1 

Do you have any ideas ? The error diagnostic is generated from the source
file unexapollo.c.

I would appreciate any help that you can give on this.

Thanks,

Anthony Bowles
