[comp.mail.elm] ELM2.2 on uport SV/AT

FYI on installing ELM2.2 PL0 on uPORT V2.4/286:

1. Must be Configured using 'ksh'. I use ksh-i with no problems.
2. Since ELM MUST be compiled with -Ml, two approches can be taken here.
	A. Configure to your satisfaction. Edit src/Makefile to include
	   -Ml for CC and LD flags. Compile elm only. Delete src/*.o files.
	   Compile rest of elm system, IE: utils, filter, etc. These are
           compiled small (default) model, so you have to delete the stuff
           from src/ or you will have incompatible magic numbers.
	B. This is the approch that I use. Config to your requirements.
 	   Edit utils/Makefile, filter/Makefile to delete -Ml options.
           Modify each Makefile to delete the ../src/*.c files. I think
           there were 3 of them. Now copy those files from src/ to utils
           and filter. Doing it this way, you can make all without having
           to mess around deleting src/*.o files. I made a quickie script
           that copies the needed files after a patch session, so I have
           current copies in utils and filter directories.
Once you get the configure done and the makefiles modified, you can compile
from a patch without any hassles. You can tar the whole mess once you're done
and keep it around for future patches, so you won't have to go thru the whole
nosebleed again.

Hope this helps...
