mailing-list for TeXmacs Users

[address@hidden (Mohsen Bouaissa)]

Hi !
Thanks a lot for the answer; well, before reading your e-mail, I repeated the 
suggested steps to install TeXmacs under cygwin, and get a different message.
Here is what I did exactly:
- I downloaded guile (1.4.1) and TeXmacs (TeXmacs-1.0.0.18-src) in tar.gz 
format
- I unpacked both files in  cygwin/usr/src thus creating guile-1.4.1 and 
TeXmacs-1.0.0.18-src folders
- I compiled guile : 
cd //usr/src/guile-1.4.1 , 
./configure --disable-shared
make 
make install
- I then adapted, as suggested, te TeXmacs insallation files:
   - Found the file named 'makefile' located in:
   'C:\cygwin\usr\src\TexMacs-1.0.0.18-src\src\makefile')

   -located the line:
       link_options:=-L $(tmsrc)/lib -lm $(LDBPATH) $(LDBXWINDOW)...
           $(LDBGUILE) $(LDBDL)
   -and changed it to:
     link_options:=-L $(tmsrc)/lib -lm $(LDBPATH) $(LDBXWINDOW)...
            $(LDBGUILE) -lltdl $(LDBDL)
- Then I tried to compile TeXmacs using the following commands
  cd /usr/src/TeXmacs-1.0.0.18-src
  ./configure
  make STATIC_TEXMACS

Things then went wrong and here is what I recieved as error message:


Resource/Bitmaps_fonts/shrink.cc:17: parse error before `/' token
Resource/Bitmaps_fonts/shrink.cc:26: ISO C++ forbids declaration of 
`fatal_error' with no type

make[1]: ***[Objects/shrink.o] Error 1
make[1]: leaving directory `/usr/src/TeXmacs-1.0.0.18-src/src'
make[1]: ***[STATIC_TEXMACS] Error 2



That's all what I've done and get, hope you have some suggestions !
Thanks 
Mohsen
