Do you always treat newcomers with complete silence?

 Subject: An old patch
 
 
 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!

An old patch
