I had to hack the 2.2beta source to get it to compile under Linux. This is what I did to get around the error you mention. I also had to hack the Module*.c code to work with a newer version of tcl. I offered to post these fixes (for HP-UX also), but I was told that 2.2beta is not supported, so no one wanted them. -Mark spark,Modules-v2.2BETA-mine> diff main.c* 66d65 < extern FILE* aliasfile; 73,74d71 < aliasfile = stdout; < Exit 1 spark,Modules-v2.2BETA-mine> diff utility.c* 44,51d43 < #if __linux__ < #include <string.h> < #include <sys/types.h> < #include <sys/stat.h> < #include <fcntl.h> < #include <stdlib.h> < #endif < 496c488 < FILE* aliasfile; --- > static FILE* aliasfile = stdout; Exit 1 Mark Lakata MIPS Technologies 1225 Charleston Road Mountain View, CA 94043 phone 650-567-5170 fax 650-567-5002 email la...@mi...
