Hello list, I am having problems installing the newer versions of PMX on Linux. I used the ZIPs provided by Don, 2.411 through 2.414, unpacked them with the -a option to get rid of the CR-LF linebreaks and the trailing ^Z EOF-character in the Fortran source file and renamed the source file: mv pmx2414.for pmxab.f
1st attempt: g77 =============== Using g77 version 2.95.3 20010315 (SuSE) (from FSF-g77 version 0.5.25 20010315 (release)), I tried the following: g77 pmxab.f -o pmxab ...which produced the following output, giving exit status 1: --------------------------------------------------------- pmxab.f:562: call getarg(1,jobname,idum) ! May need to replace this w/ next l ^ Too many arguments passed to intrinsic `GETARG' at (^) pmxab.f:575: call getarg(2,jobname,idum) ! May need to replace this w/ next ^ Too many arguments passed to intrinsic `GETARG' at (^) --------------------------------------------------------- No binary was produced. 2nd attempt: f2c =============== f2c -C -Nn802 -Nx400 pmxab.f gcc -Wall pmxab.c -lf2c -lm -o pmxab yields an executable pmxab, but it immediately fails with a segmentation fault on every input file. Packages used here were: f2c-0.11-338 gcc 2.95.3 All this worked well using the tarball for Linux found on the archive for an old PMX 2.4. 3rd attempt: wine ================ My last resort was the win32 binary included in the package, using wine. It works pretty well, not even slow, but as a Linuxer, I am not really happy with it. What have I done wrong? 4. Concerning PMX ================= With the new PMX running, I am really happy with the first and second part slurs on linebreaks. Thank you very much, Don! The results are very nice!
