Sun May 2 18:40:46 IDT 1999 See the README.1st file in the atari directory. -------------------------------------------------------- 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.
