RE: [Gcl-devel] gcl 2.6.2

[Mike Thomas]

Hi Tim.

Good to hear from you again.  Please note that I'm not in a position to
chase this up beyond the point of triviality, but for what it's worth,
please read on:

| Is there any chance of getting a console trace from the Axiom run?


=====================================================================
$ ./configure --help

You must set your AXIOM and PATH variables. Type:

export AXIOM=/c/cvs/head/axiom/mnt/linux
export PATH=$AXIOM/bin:$PATH

To build the rest of the system type:

make

configure finished.

$ export AXIOM=/c/cvs/head/axiom/mnt/linux


============================================================

Tim, note that here I diverge and use "win" instead of "linux".  In fact, I
used the latter yesterday and got the same result.


=====================================================================

$ export AXIOM=/c/cvs/head/axiom/mnt/win; export PATH=${AXIOM}/bin:${PATH}
