Dear nedit developers,
I have ported nedit to the MINIX 3 operating system
(http://www.minix3.org). Attached you can find the patch.
Compiling on MINIX requires the following packages:
- GCC (gcc-4.1.1 and binutils-2.16.1)
- GNU make (make-3.80)
- Lesstif (lesstif-0.93.96)
- X11 (X11R6.8.2)
The program should be compiled as follows:
/usr/gnu/bin/gmake minix
With kind regards,
Erik van der Kouwe

+# Prototype System-Specific Makefile for NEdit
+#
+# NEdit does not use any kind of automated configuration like the popular GNU
+# configure utility, or Imake. Instead, it has a set of hand-generated
+# system-specific Makefiles. The Makefiles serve two purposes. The obvious
+# purpose is to build NEdit. The less obvious purpose is to document on which
+# systems effort has been put into verifying that NEdit actually works
properly.
+# If your system is not represented here, check the nedit web site at:
+# http://nedit.org for more contributed Makefiles.
+#
+# NEdit has few dependencies, and sticks to Posix and ANSI C standards wherever
+# possible. The only problems people generally run in to in porting NEdit are
+# related to the Motif GUI library. If you're having trouble building NEdit,
+# usually the best way to get it to work is to look at any other Motif, or at
+# least X example which builds and runs successfully, and copy the compiler
+# flags and libraries that it uses.
+#
+
+# C Compiler used to build all of the C sources. This must be an
+# ANSI standard C compiler.
+CC=/usr/gnu/bin/gcc
+
+# Library (archive) tool used to combine groups of object files into
+# a single file.
+AR=/usr/gnu/bin/gar
+
+# Arguments to be passed to the C compiler.
+#
+# Below are compiler flags which may be of use if you are porting NEdit to a
+# new system
+#
+# DONT_HAVE_GLOB Some older systems don't have the glob subroutine for
+# USE_MOTIF_GLOB expanding file names. If the linker complains about not
+# finding "glob" and "globfree", first try adding:
+# -DUSE_MOTIF_GLOB, which will use a private Motif routine
+# in place of "glob". Being a private routine, it is not
+# available in all Motif implementations, and you may have
+# to resort to -DDONT_HAVE_GLOB, and NEdit will not be able
+# to expand wildcards in the "Open Selected" command (which
+# is no huge loss).
+#
+# USE_DIRENT Some Unix systems call the structure used by the readdir
+# subroutine dirent, rather than direct. Add -DUSE_DIRENT
+# to CFLAGS if your C compiler complains about the line:
+#
+# struct direct *DirEntryPtr;
+#
+# USE_LPR_PRINT_CMD NEdit considers the standard Unix print command to be "lp"
+# unless told otherwise. If the standard command on your
+# system type is "lpr", define this. (This is just the last
+# resort default. You can redefine the print command to be
+# whatever you like via X resource settings).
+#
+# DONT_USE_ACCESS NEdit used to determine the accessibility of a file by
+# trying to open it. However, one of the more popular
+# commercial configuration management tools, ClearCase,
+# considers opening a file in read/write mode to be a
+# modification, even if no writing is ever done. This lead
+# to users having trouble with ClearCase thinking their
+# files had been modified when they hadn't. NEdit now uses
+# access() to determine whether a file is writable (in a
+# safe way). The old behavior can be restored by defining
+# DONT_USE_ACCESS.
+#
+# ROWCOLPATCH Patches around a problem in several versions the Solaris
+# Motif library which can cause crashes when a wiget is
+# destroyed. See comments in window.c for details.
+#
+# IBM_FWRITE_BUG Killer AIX system bug with fwrite system call. Only
+# affects one release of AIX, but can cause data corruption.
+# IBM actually denies that this bug ever existed, but it
+# was pretty widespread.
+#
+# EDITRES If you have the Xmu library, define this to give NEdit
+# the capability of being probed by editres to display its
+# widget tree. Editres is useful in customizing details
+# of X applications which their developers have deemed too
+# minute to document. If you define this, you must also add
+# -lXmu to LIBS
+#
+# NO_XMIM Don't use the Motif version of the international character
+# set input routines in the nedit text widget. Turn this on
+# if you see crashes in routines beginning with XmIm. Such
+# bugs exist in IRIX 6.5 and some older Motif versions.
+#
+# REPLACE_SCOPE Currently, two alternative (but functionally equivalent)
+# Replace/Find dialog box layouts are available. By default,
+# a layout with 2 rows of push buttons is built. Compiling
+# with the REPLACE_SCOPE flag enables an alternative layout
+# with a row of radio buttons for selecting the scope of the
+# replace operations. Eventually, one of these alternatives
+# will probably disappear. Please let us know which one you
+# prefer (via the discuss mailing list, for instance).
+#
+# HAVE__XMVERSIONSTRING If the Motif library exports the runtime version this
+# will display both strings in the version info to help
+# confirm the compile time and run time versions are
+# compatible.
+#
+# NO_READLINK Define if your system doesn't have the UNIX interface
+# readlink(2) - or just no symlinks at all.
+#
+# HAVE_CONFIG_H Include config.h from toplevel directory in front
+# of all other headers in each .c source file.
+# Only useful for developers so far.
+#
+# HAVE_DEBUG_H Include debug.h from toplevel directory after
+# all other headers in each .c source file.
+# Only useful for developers.
+#
+# Some compilers need to be told to operate in ansi-standard mode, some have
+# different levels of optimization that you can select (optimization improves
+# syntax highlighting performance. You will also often need to add locations
+# of X and/or Motif include files if they are not in the compiler's standard
+# search path.
