Thank you, I will check them at about two weeks (I have a windows installation only at work!)

I discovered a minor bug that prevents the universal build from installing (from source) on OS X.

The problem is that this line generates a binary called "newlisp-universal" instead of "newlisp":

Code: Select all

make -f makefile_darwin_universal_utf8

And therefore you get this error:

Code: Select all

$ sudo make install
install -d /usr/share/newlisp
install -d /usr/share/newlisp/modules
install -d /usr/share/newlisp/util
install -d /usr/share/doc/newlisp
rm /usr/bin/newlisp
install -m 755  newlisp /usr/bin/newlisp-10.1.4
install: newlisp: No such file or directory
make: [install] Error 71 (ignored)

binary called "newlisp-universal" instead of "newlisp"

this is on purpose the file "newlisp-universal" is made on 10.4 Tiger then used by a different script to generate packages for ppc and intel, which then get extracted from the universal file.

Well, do you therefore think one should not be able to install the universal newlisp binary from source..? I can't see why we can't have the best of both worlds. :-)
