So there is probably something extra that has to be #included (or something that should not be #included) in our own drivers/gd.c for the Borland compiler case. By the way, I suggest you use "make VERBOSE=1" to get the exact compilation command that is failing to run for the above build of gd.obj. Once you have the exact command, then it makes it easier for you to debug the situation further. If you can figure out what source code changes are required to get the Borland compiler to work in this case, let us know. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
