Hello Clint,

I think I might have found an error or two in "unicon/src/config/makefile.run".  I 
know I previously reported all was working (which it was), but I believe it was 
working for the wrong reasons.

Using the latest sourceforge source files on a virgin system with no previous versions 
of Unicon installed, I attempted to build Unicon (NT-Configure-GCC) but the result was 
incomplete.  The build process created rtt.exe and icont.exe but not iconx.exe.  
Because iconx.exe is mssing, it seems unicon.exe is never created.  (It worked for me 
previously because I had a working version of Unicon installed and iconx.exe was in 
that search path!!!)  Pouring through the source code I notice what might be the 
problem:

make interp_all (found in mkicont.bat) launches in src/runtime.

Line 22 (below) is commented out?  "Uncommenting" the line allowed iconx.exe to be 
built and subsequently unicon.exe.

22:     # all:  interp_all comp_all

I also noted that:

47:     OBJS=   $(XOBJS) $(COBJS)
48:     
49:     interp_all: $(COBJS) $(WOBJS)
50:     $(MAKE) $(ICONX)

Shouldn't line 49 read as follows:
49:     interp_all: $(OBJS) $(WOBJS)

This would allow the definition (pardon my terminology) of OBJS to be used which 
includes XOBJS and COBJS.

Finally, is a complete build supposed to include the nticont.exe and nticonx.exe 
executables.  I only get the nticonx.exe after applying the patch to makefile.run.  It 
seems to me both are installed when using the binaries off the web site.

Food for thought.

Regards,

Daniel Boulet
