Hi. I was wondering if anyone out there has successfully used _tinymain to
replace _main to avoid opening a window on the workbench screen for stdin/out.
I tried the DEFINE _main=_tinymain in my BLINK command line, but it says
that _main is defined twice. I got the information from page G32 in the man.
Thanks,
Jeff

I got the information from page G32 in the man. Simply name the main function _main instead of main. Then link normally. _main(char *argline) { /* whatever */ } ------------ Robin

Because it is :
DEFINE __main=__tinymain
You need 2 underscores.

I got the information from page G32 in the man. It's a subtle difference, but you need to use double underscores: DEFINE __main=__tinymain No, it isn't documented that way. There's a typo in the manual. I had to write Lattice about it. My manual doesn't say anything about it on page G32. In my manual the erroneous documentation is on page L264. I have version 5.05. Another way to achieve the same result is to recompile main with the preprocessor symbol "TINY" defined. The source is in umain.c in the source directory of disk 4 of your original distribution. --Fabbian Dufoe 350 Ling-A-Mor Terrace South St. Petersburg, Florida 33705 813-823-2350 UUCP: fgd3@jc3b21.UUCP ...uunet!pdn!jc3b21!fgd3

I had to It isn't a typo - exactly. The manual was typeset in a font in which the underscores run together. Therefore, it was rather difficult to catch the problem in the drafts... ***** NOTE NEW BBS NUMBER (AGAIN): =*|_o_o|\\=====Doug Walker, Software Distiller====== BBS: (919)460-7430 = *|. o.| || | o |// For all you do, this bug's for you! ====== usenet: ...mcnc!rti!sas!walker plink: dwalker bix: djwalker
