[quote="Steve Jones"][quote="Stefan Ritt"][quote="Steve Jones"]Stefan, I am concerned that there are becoming too many Linux dependencies in terms of required
libraries and header files. Although we have a replacement for the [code]forkpty()[/code] routine, I am running into many other dependencies, the latest
of which is pty.h. Aren't there guidelines in GCC that point out what is available cross-platform and what is not? For example, any SVR# (System Five, |

system(const char *s);[/code], then opening that file for a read would accomplish what is being desired?

svn revision number in the source, posted by Steve Jones on Tue Feb 21 19:25:28 2006

There is a variable $Id$ in source that looks like it is supposed to reflect the svn revision number of the compiled code. How is this supposed to be set,
manually just before compiling?

[quote="Stefan Ritt"][quote="Steve Jones"]So, when we go to the download section and download directly from there, that is not "committed" source? I ask
because the revision id there is not set to anything that I can see.[/quote]
