Hello All! With following little patch I can build a portably dumped XEmacs for native Windows NT. See atend for the restrictions of my build. I updated from CVS yesterday. The update completed Fri Mar 10 21:33:55 CET. The final problem I see was discussed between Marcus, Martin, and Olivier on xemacs-beta between 2000-02-07 and 2000-02-08. ! [ 37: Marcus Thiessel ] [21.2.28] pdump doesn't work any more ! [ 57: Martin Buchholz ] ! [ 12: Olivier Galibert ] ! [ 21: Marcus Thiessel ] ! [ 29: Martin Buchholz ] Removing temacs.exe and xemacs.exe and re-running nmake /f xemacs.mak ... does not solve the problem for me. Can someone enlighten me, please?
