Borland doesn't have support for long long type so it isn't usable Microsoft and dmc lack unistd.h in various degrrees. Which is fixable with what you find on the internet. dirent.h is an other one also fixable via the internet. Microsoft is the pain in the ass because gnumake isn't capable of producing the fossil.exe. With a bit of fiddling around fossil.exe was produced. both fossils by dmc en msvc allow me to clone, open, diff, changes, ui and server. So seem you can use native compilers for fossil compiling. I still want to look in the open watcom compiler. -- Rene de Zwart _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
