If you find that your default C compiler is not ANSI-capable, but you know that an ANSI-capable compiler is installed on your system, you can tell F<Configure> to use the correct compiler by means of the C<-Dcc=> command-line option -- see L<"gcc">. e.g.: Configure -Dcc=/opt/gcc/bin/gcc HTH till > Hi, > I am a newbie on Unix, Perl and C.
