Serguei:

My appologies for the delayed response.  Unfortunately, it will not be getting
better for the next two months......

BJ> What version of OpenWatcom did you use?

ST> I used "WatcomC 11.0c b1".

BJ> Ah...  Ok.  Wasn't that just before the free version?  Or maybe

BJ> some other stuff.....

ST> Yes, it was one of very first versions.

Ok.  We should try to adopt the curren version of OpenWatcom, if possible.  I
realize just getting all the code to compile with your existing Watcom compiler
setup should be ok for now.....

ST> Now I'm downloading 1.1 version of OpenWatcom and will
ST> try to compile Squish with current version.

ST> Tonight I'll try to create building environment for Watcom.

ST> I tried it yesterday, but ``configure'' script said

ST> UnxUtils make (which is incredibly buggy).
ST> Also I have perl PMake, but I'm not sure that it is
ST> good idea to use perl utilities.

Yes.  The ./configure script is something Wes wrote, and has only been tested
on various Unix and Linux platforms.  It will need work to configure the needed
environment for the Watcom compiler.  Once we have a compilation with the
Watcom compiler going, I should be able to test it with OpenWatcom running
under OS/2....

Thanks for the note.
