Re: [Tile-dev] tile.kit questions

[Casey A. <ca...@sa...>]

Ok, i've tried to compile Tile from the source package from 
SourceForge. And i am unable to successfully compile it.

I tried both Jeff's and Joe's versions.

When i try ./configure, i get these errors:
checking for correct TEA configuration... ok (TEA 3.5)
checking for Tcl configuration... configure: WARNING: Can't find Tcl 
configuration definitions


However, there is a Port of Tile, and that has compiled successfully. 
Any tips on getting the standard SF.net source distribution to 
compile?

I certainly wouldn't mind either offering an account on my machine to 
compile Tile releases, or doing it myself.
