- Gawk on the Atari has been compiled and tested using gcc, both
- with and without -mshort flag. Other compilers can be used but if
- sizeof(pointer) != sizeof(int) this code will not compile correctly
- with a non-ANSI compiler (prototypes and library).
-
- Compiled executables were tested and passed successfully a test suite
- similar to 'make test'. Required changes are minor and minor
- modifications are due to differences in environment and/or shell. If
- a need will arise a modified test suite with a driving Makefile (for
- gulam) is available on a request from Michal Jaegermann,
- michal@gortel.phys.ualberta.ca or michal@ellpspace.math.ualberta.ca,
- via e-mail.
-
- Sample files atari/Makefile.st, atari/Makefile.awklib and
- atari/config.h assume gcc compilation and execution under TOS; it is
- likely that one would want to change it for another setup. If they
- are ok then copy atari/Makefile.st to Makefile, atari/config.h to
- config.h and atari/Makefile.awklib to awklib/Makefile.. Pay attention
- to code fragments bracketed by '#ifdef atarist ... #endif'. These
- modifications may not be required/desired with a different OS and/or
- libraries.
