I'm currently running Win98 and am using a Cygwin Bash Shell,I don't really know what's wrong, I've created the makefile and everything but every time I try to compile it I get the following error.

make: *** [act_comm.o] Error 255

Can someone please help me?

If you have stock rom2.4b6, make your makefile look like this:

CC = gcc
PROF = -O -g
NOCRYPT = -DNOCRYPT
C_FLAGS = -Wall $(PROF) $(NOCRYPT) -DOLD_RAND
L_FLAGS = $(PROF)

O_FILES = act_comm.o act_enter.o act_info.o act_move.o act_obj.o act_wiz.o \
alias.o ban.o comm.o const.o db.o db2.o effects.o fight.o flags.o \
handler.o healer.o interp.o note.o lookup.o magic.o magic2.o \
music.o recycle.o save.o scan.o skills.o special.o tables.o \
update.o

rom: $(O_FILES)
rm -f rom
$(CC) $(L_FLAGS) -o rom $(O_FILES)

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

Ok, I did that but now I'm getting the following error:

Makefile:14: *** missing separator. Stop.
[1]+ Exit 2 make

Make files are sensitive to tabs. Use the makefile suggested, but typing a tab character where shown in bold...


CC      = gcc
PROF    = -O -g
NOCRYPT = -DNOCRYPT
C_FLAGS =  -Wall $(PROF) $(NOCRYPT) -DOLD_RAND
L_FLAGS =  $(PROF)

O_FILES = act_comm.o act_enter.o act_info.o act_move.o act_obj.o act_wiz.o \
          alias.o ban.o comm.o const.o db.o db2.o effects.o fight.o flags.o \
	  handler.o healer.o interp.o note.o lookup.o magic.o magic2.o \
	  music.o recycle.o save.o scan.o skills.o special.o tables.o \
	  update.o

rom: $(O_FILES)
[tab]rm -f rom
[tab]	$(CC) $(L_FLAGS) -o rom $(O_FILES)

.c.o: merc.h
[tab]	$(CC) -c $(C_FLAGS) $<
