- I downloaded EMX-0.8d from Hobbes and installed the GCC compiler under OS2.
- I have a 486/33 with 12 megs of RAM installed. GCC works fine and created
- the executable PROG.EXE. However, I need to read in a huge data set 10000 by
- 20, so I tried to use EMXBIND to combine PROG with EMX.exe. I tried the
- BIND.CMD that comes with EMX-0.8d and came back with an error "cannot open
- PROG.EXE". I tried to use EMXBIND manually, got the same message. "PROG.EXE"
- was in the default directory where I executed BIND and EMXBIND though.
-
- This is the first time I use GCC. Are there compiling options I should have
- used before I run BIND? The path to all the emx executables seem fine since
- the BIND program did not complain about locating EMXL.exe or EMX.exe. Any
- tips and advice on this problem would be appreciated.
