Re: [ES40-developers] OSX command-line port without X-Code

[Timothy P. <vec...@gm...>]

Hello there,
I downloaded es40_cvs_20080503_1030_src snapshot without using cvs which
might explain the line terminator problem that I had.  I'll try downloading
with cvs itself and see what happens.  I did modify some of the files to
deal with the problem and got it to start building and then ran into an
internal compiler error ( I think ? ).  I'm also going to get the latest
Apple compiler and see if it solves the second problem I had.

I'm willing to take the leap, I know C and assembler and need a cool project
to tinker with in order to get more into C++.

I own a Alpha 21164SX system but it won't boot VMS according to the online
docs.

Tim
