Forgot to add. So now "make all" works with all the changes I have gone
through. The command "make install" still fails as I described in a
separate email chain a while back (couple of months maybe?).
In particular, to get "make install" to work, I have to modify
tools/tools.gpr and add ".exe" to both executable names:
package Builder is
for Executable ("gnoga_make-main.adb") use "gnoga_make.exe";
for Executable ("gnoga_doc-main.adb") use "gnoga_doc.exe";
end Builder;
Otherwise make install fails with
---------------------------------------------------------------
Install project Tools
file D:\Program_Files\msys64\home\Jere\gnoga-code-2017_11_02\bin\gnoga_make
does not exist, build may not be complete
make: *** [Makefile:202: install] Error 1
---------------------------------------------------------------
and a similar error for gnoga_doc
