Hello, I've some problems with 'ar'. I'm working on a 4D/20G with System Level 3.1D . Problem: ar qv `lorder *.o | tsort` comes up with an error message: word too long when I have about 100 object files in the current directory. I guess this is a rather silly small limit for ar. Please report any hints/guesses also directly to ZRFL@DS0RUS1I.BITNET . Thanks in advance - Heinz

Forgive me, I am not a C or Unix expert. However, I have to port a piece of software from Sun to PI. It is to run under X, and the makefile is trying to use X11_s library (actually, it's looking for X11.a which is not on the PI version of X11R4 {at least not on the one I just installed with 3.3 and 3.3.1}). ld chokes with a message "no symbolic information for /usr/lib/libX11_s". Anyone care to advise? I can't seem to locate ar or any substitute... I am using -lbsd. A pointer to the right documentation would be a good start. By the way, the software I'm porting is big and not mine originally, but the pieces all compile without complaint. Thanks for any help, Dave demers@cs.ucsd.edu
