(general/src/log) I dont even know what this thing does:) But I was screwing with it. I modifed the install script, such that MACH=LINUX, and specified a local SPSDIR. After running sh install (with many errors), and adding $SPSDIR/bin to my path, I tried to build in ATT, but it failed with the same error you note. The main problem was that 'get_esps_base' seemed to be missing from $SPSDIR/bin, which I created. Then you get the -I option from emake that points to $SPSDIR/include, where you will find esps/*.h. This progresses much further... After that, it failed wanting xview headers-- seems to want either xview or sunview, which I dont have, so I punted. It definitely seems to be set up to build under a variety of unix environments, so making it work under linux doesn seem a super difficult problem. (probably you just need to know what system libs and headers are required and what to set the conf details to in 'install') For what its worth... (I didnt spend any time at it-- reminds me of the bad old days when getting just about any source to compile under your particular unix was an adventure like this...:) Paul set(a)pobox.com
