Hello, I tried to upgrade to Version 3.1.1, especially for the announced use of the cursor Arrow-Keys, but (on a pure 64-bit Slackware 14.0 with Java):
tar -vxf picoLisp-3.1.1.tgz tar: This does not look like a tar archive tar: Skipping to next header gzip: stdin: decompression OK, trailing garbage ignored tar: Child returned status 2 tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now Ark managed to extract something (albeit a warning/error message) but e.g. the INSTALL file was missing and the build failed: cd src64 make make: *** No rule to make target `sysdefs.c', needed by `sysdefs'. Stop. I then tried to downgrade to the old 3.1.0 Version but discovered that the now downloadable http://software-lab.de/picoLisp-3.1.0.tgz (same errors as 3.1.1) differed from a picoLisp-3.1.0.tgz (downloaded some time ago) I had on an external harddisk: cmp picoLisp-3.1.0.tgz /home/ego/EINGANG/picoLisp-3.1.0.tgz picoLisp-3.1.0.tgz /home/ego/EINGANG/picoLisp-3.1.0.tgz differ: byte 5, line 1 [length is identical 819677 bytes] In my opinion archived versions should not be changed (except by malicious hackers); With the 3.1.0 Version from my harddisk the build (using Java/ersatz) succeeded. I find PicoLisp very interesting and hope to realize some little projects with it. Answart Lauermann --- -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:[email protected]?subject=Unsubscribe
