Reason: a number of errors show up on screen and do not get copied into the file. Therefore, tonight I did another fresh build of gnash and its test suite, and copied the results off the screen itself. The results are at http://www.wg3.net/On-screenCompilationErrors.txt -- and I tried attaching it here.

I went on Ming's web site and downloaded their version 0.4.2 and compiled that. Hopefully it's up to date enough. > -- > Yes, YouTube does work in Gnash > http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/ > > Benjamin Wolsey, Software Developer - http://benjaminwolsey.de N.B.: After a careful review of your technical manual, I found it strongly suggested there that MAKE CHECK is indeed supposed to display a number of test files on my screen. Based on that, I'm bound to say that no part of the test suite is working. Compile results for that are included as well in my 232.8 KB file on my web site. -- ................................................ Willy Gommel http://www.wg3.net
