Thats a good idea actually. I didn't think about moving the source out of $HOME. I would think the logical location would be along side the other source folders: c:/JTSDK/src/hamlib3 or similar. That should take $USER out of the path completely. At present, all I'm doing is a git pull from within $HOME, but I don't see any reason it should not work from another non-white-space location as we're using the Qt5 Tool chain already, which is outside of the ../msys paths anyway. Rather than cd $HOME, just cd to the JTSDK/src folder then do the pull / integration checkout. I'll look at that later today. It should not require much of a change to implement. > > I will submit the autogen.sh patches so at least it runs but configure > will exit with an error about unsafe characters in $SRCDIR, which is > probably correct. >> >> >> *TO INSTALL THE UPDATE* >> Note: If you've locally modified either ..\scripts\docenv-alias.txt or >> ..scripts\msys-build-hamlib3.sh, you should remove them before updating, >> or resolve the SVN conflicts manually if prompted. >> >> * Start > Programs > JTSDK > JTSDK Update >> * Then open JTSDK-MSYS and build as you normally would. >> >> >> 73's >> Greg, KI7MT > 73 > Bill > G4WJS. <snip> 73's Greg, KI7MT ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Monitor 25 network devices or servers for free with OpManager!
