The recent posting of the xmodem thing for the unix pc has a serious flaw: somehow the contents of xmodem.1 (the man page) overwrote the contents of xmodem.l (the lex source) before the thing was wrapped. An attempt to make fails immediately on lex-ing this roff-stuff. This should doubtless be reposted. It's small, and seems useful. For you fanatics, I am duly ashamed of myself for posting a nonsource to a sources group, but point out there's no sources.d here. --- Kevin O'Gorman ( kevin@kosman ) voice: 805-984-8042 Vital Computer Systems, 5115 Beachcomber, Oxnard, CA 93035

There isn't any lex source in the xmodem distribution. The attempt to lex the xmodem.l file is due to make's built in rule for transforming files whose names end in .l. Try renaming the xmodem.l file xmodem.1 or xmodem.man or something, and everything should be peachy. >For you fanatics, I am duly ashamed of myself for posting a nonsource >to a sources group, but point out there's no sources.d here.
