I think you mean env GFORTH=... ./BUILD-FROM-SCRATCH However, if you already have gforth and your kernl....fi in ".", you can just say make > With or without the old method, it was looking for the gforth.fi in the > places where it will be after it is installed, so I had to do something.

However, if you have a gforth (>=0.5.0) installed somewhere, and all the tools, BUILD-FROM-SCRATCH should fix both problems. - anton --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
