Interesting. When I was playing with it over the
weekend, cl wasn't working for some reason, and
wouldn't compile my test program under MSYS unless I
used a modified cccl to convert the parameters.
However, I ran it this morning, and it ran just fine
after I removed the '-g' from the CFLAGS in the
makefile.
Thanks. I've been looking forward to learning
autoconf/automake for sometime now, and just now had
the opportunity - and I have to support
Linux/Unix/Windows at the same time (just made sense).
Thanks for the help.
