It could be added of course.
Thanks, I hoped it was something as easy as that. I couldn't find any documentation on how to write for the autobuilder so I knocked up the beginnings of a page: http://www.riscos.info/index.php/Autobuilder_development (this was actually an existing page with minimal content that I recycled - anyone's free to rename it if they like) I then noticed that there's lots of details in autobuilder/Autobuilder.html and autobuilder/Packaging.html. Is there any particular reason these are in the source tree not the wiki? Currently the only way to view them if you don't have a source tree is to use webSVN and read the HTML source, which isn't great. > >FWIW I'm building AOF on GCC 3 at the moment. > > Realistically, due to the amount of time we have, that combination isn't > entirely supported. It may or may not work for certain items. No problem, I realised that. I just didn't have the time to grab everything and rebuild it all from scratch again, and was prepared to put up with any brokenness. AFAICS it worked fine once I flipped the AB_ELFBUILD switch.
