- Start "Xnest :1" and "xterm -display :1" for testing purposes.

- Get clbuild and run it without arguments to get the interactive menu.

- Select "dumpcore" and wait.

- Select "eclipse" and enter :1 as the display to use.

For non-interactive use, run "clbuild eclipse :0".

running this from ksh shell.
$bash ./clbuild
readlink: unknown option -- f
usage: readlink [-n] [file . . .]

clbuild doesn't work here with NetBSD 3.0 is there another way to
start eclipse manually

So -f is a GNU extension which NetBSD does not support.

Sure. Grep for eclipse in the shell script and run the lisp forms
manually.

Hey David there is no asd file within the eclipse directory to use:
sbcl --eval "(asdfos 'asdf:load-op :eclipse)

am I missing something?

sorry for double posting.
sbcl --eval "(asdfos 'asdf:load-op :eclipse)"

(xlib::just-say-lisp) ;;demo runs fine from clx after asdf-install.

after cvsing eclipse I did
$cd eclipse
$./configure
$make
$make install

everything install fine and I have a eclipse.core file within the
eclipse directory. This is where I'm stuck at.

silly me, all I need to do was run the eclipse command. Guess, I'd
better install gnome-control-center or at least find a $HOME/.eclipse
that I can use. Thanks David

Darwin (OS/X) does not either.

Does stat on Linux or other *nix support -f?

clbuild.conf for OpenMCL - I had to comment out USER_INIT=/dev/null
since --userinit is for SBCL?

and what is -o on uname? I guess it does not matter if
it fails, if it is only being used to detect 'Cygwin'.

-

clbuild seems a bit better structured now, if curl
(out-of-the-box with Darwin) can be cleanly switched
in get_tarball(), would that be a worthy enhancement?
