- Well, I finally got around to updating my system. I got
- bunches of stuff. I have gcc 2.2.2 installed. Now, I'm trying to
- compile the mtools (the one that is one file for all) and I got
- a problem. When linking, gcc complains that got_signal isn't there.
- Well, I looked and it's true. I find references in three files but
- no where is it defined.. What's up with this?
- Also, gcc complains about gets() in stdio.. saying that you shouldn't
- use it? Why on earth is that in there? If you have functions that
- are that unreliable, REMOVE IT! I do believe it is ansi, so why say
- something like that? *fume*
-
- Any help?
-
- Thanks,
- Dan
