I've been watching the list regarding the recent patches and would really, really like to contribute more, but not having a degree in computer science nor having much C programming experience I'm finding the learning curve to be rather steep.
That said, I should add that I've recently read much of the documentation on the GNU Automake site and now have a much better understanding of the Auto* tools and how they work together. Additionally, I purchased a book called Mac OS X for Unix Geeks (which I'm not) because it has a couple of chapters that deal specifically with building "legacy" (Unix) software on Mac OS X, including a chapter on building dynamic shared libraries.
I'm writing to the list today to see if anyone can make a recommendation on an IDE for Mac OS X (Jaguar). Apple's IDE, Project Builder, is outstanding for native OS X (Cocoa, ObjectiveC, Java) development, but isn't ideally suited for C development (or at least, that's what their documentation would lead one to believe). I know there are probably two or three really good open source IDEs out there that integrate more closely with the Auto* suite of tools and before I go mucking around trying to find one that works for me, I thought I'd ask some of the developers on this list for recommendations.
I look forward to your replies and if you want to answer off-list, that would be fine too.
Thanks for all of your hard work, all of you...
