I have tried to compile the rolodex program that recently came over the net on comp.sources.unix (in 4 parts). I left the TERMINFO defined. I am running release 3.51 of the UNIXpc with 3.51 development set and Terminfo development set (Rel 3.0) installed. The compiler complained about syntax in the include file, an experience I have never had before. The complait (on file clear.c) is as follows: "/usr/include/term.h", line 725: syntax error "/usr/include/term.h", line 725: cannot recover from earlier errors: goodbye! The relavent parts of term.h are provided for your reading pleasure: 724 #ifndef NONSTANDARD 725 SGTTY Ottyb, /* original state of the terminal */ 726 Nttyb; /* current state of the terminal */ 727 #endif Any thoughts?

The definition of SGTTY is in /usr/include/curses.h on my system.

SGTTY is undefined so it complains. SGTTY is defined in curses.h. Just put in #include <curses.h> before the term.h include. Since you'll be using curses, I think it's probably also a good idea to put a #ifndef TERMINFO #endif pair around the stdio.h include since from what I've read it's not a good idea to include both stdio and curses in the same program. You may also have a problem with toolsdir/ctools.c at line 640. If it complains about redefining sprintf, comment out the #ifdef UNIX and leave the int sprintf, as our UNIX system defines sprintf as an int valued function (3B15). Make sure you use the proper Makefile, both in the normal directory and toolsdir. I compiled it fine after this and it works great! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brian Bebeau Marquette University DOMAIN: brianb@marque.mu.edu UUCP: {rutgers,ihnp4,harvard}!uwvax!marque!brianb {rutgers,uunet}!marque!brianb ARPA: brianb%marque.uucp@csd1.milw.wisc.edu BITNET: 6877BEBE@MUCSD ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sure, the problem is that you need the definition of SGTTY which is found in /usr/include/curses.h! All you need to do to make the clear.c program (the one with the offending message) do a #include <curses.h> before you do a #include <term.h> Once you add the new line, everything will compile fine.
