Need LOTS of help, probably.

I downloaded Cygwin thinking I'd give this a try, and I used the example given under "How to make changes, including compiling" and I got some kind of strange error that no one else on the forum seems to be getting. It's like...

$ make
MAKE Version 5.0 Copyright (c) 1987, 1997 Borland International
Error makefile 70: Command syntax error
Error makefile 71: Command syntax error
*** 2 errors during make ***

I probably didn't follow the instructions right, so if possible, can I be pointed in the right direction?

paste lines 70 and 71 from your makefile that way someone knows what's making the compiler kick out :)

Heh...Here's something that may be kinda funny...How do I do that. I mean, paste lines 70 and 71 from the makefile...how do I even look at the lines 70 and 71 from my makefile?

Nvm, I used a Borland Compiler I had bought one day long ago (putting things to good use) to open it, and this is what it looks like (Total Newb, if not obvious already):

(starting with line 69, btw)

.c.o: mud.h
$(CC) -c $(C_FLAGS) $(USE_IMC) $<

clean:
rm -f *.o smaug *~

(last line is line 73)

Any help? Thanks
