[comp.emacs] Turbo C and MircoEMACS 3.9 & MicroSPELL 1.0

guest@vu-vlsi.UUCP (visitors) (10/28/87)

Has anyone out there in Netland been able to successfully compile either
MicroEMACS 3.9 or MicroSPELL 1.0 using Turbo C 1.00?  I have just received
the sources to both emacs and spell and have been unable to successfully
link the .obj files to make the executable files.  I get many "Linker Error:
undefined symbol '_foo' in module MAIN.C" errors.

Since I am very much a novice when C is concerned, I may be doing something
quite fundamentally wrong when compiling the programs.  Before I compile the
program, I changed the appropriate #define statements to indicate that I am
compiling with Turbo C on an MS-DOS, IBM-type machine in the estruct.h and
dopt.h files.  I then load and compile the main.c files for the programs.

All seems to go well (emacs has a few warnings about foo not used in function
bar) when compiling, but the linker fails with many errors.

Any suggestions, comments, ideas will be greatly appreciated.
