Hi All,
Finally I was able to find the MC headquarters! :-)
I use an ancient mc (version so old it is unimportant) on Solaris. Ages ago I have
patched its sources to have a (for me) very useful added feature. That is: you can
tell in the menu/extension file, if a prompt can be left empty:
8<----
m Run make with no pars, output to makeout
TARGET=%{.Enter parameters}
dtterm -geometry 184x67+0+0 -title "Make" -e wwmake $TARGET &
---->8
This is an example of the use of it: my "Makefile handler". Please observe the "."
immediately after the opening curly brace! It is very convenient. I just press F2-m
and then an enter to start make for the default target.
Now - of course - I absolutely do not remember what I have changed. But I can diff to
the original sources to tell. I do not remember if I did the same change for the
extension file or not - of course it would be helpful there as well.
Why do I write? I would like to get this change into the official version. I have
tried to compile it here - but it want glibc and other stuff I do not have - and I do
not have time now to download and build everything. Especialy because I have to
configure things with an awful lot of changes due to our restricted environment (and
ancient compilers).
My question: could anyone add this simple change to the current code or help me to do
it? I am absolutely not familiar with sourceforge and CVS. :-( I better be, but I am
not.
Please mail me directly!
Attila
