cc(1) emits the following error when I attempt making bash 1.04
builtins.c: 290: token too long
builtins.c: 341: token too long
error 1
**** stop.
Browsing builtins.c I see some *very* long strings defined. What
possible compiler toggles can I use to make the cc(1) token table
(or whatever) large enough to hold these strings ? Furthermore,
where can I find the cc(1) error messages documented ? Maybe I'm
blind, but I sure as heck can't find *any* documentation in the
Programmers Ref, Users Ref, Programmers Guide, Super Users Ref,
Super Users guide ... ad infinitum ... *it sure would be nice*
to be able to look up these short little error messages from
cc(1) in a nifty reference and find a long description of each
error accompanied by possible bypass/fixes. With that off my
chest, anyone know how to solve a "token too long" error ?

You can't. It does compile on a Tower32/700 (Rel 1.00). > [...] > anyone know how to solve a "token too long" error ? You could use the the gnu version of cpp if you have it. -- -Mike Wescott mike.wescott@ncrcae.Columbia.NCR.COM
