 B.3.1.2 Compiling `gawk' for PC Operating Systems
 .................................................
 
 `gawk' can be compiled for MS-DOS, Windows32, and OS/2 using the GNU
 development tools from DJ Delorie (DJGPP: MS-DOS only) or Eberhard
 Mattes (EMX: MS-DOS, Windows32 and OS/2).  The file
 `README_d/README.pc' in the `gawk' distribution contains additional
 notes, and `pc/Makefile' contains important information on compilation
 options.
 
    To build `gawk' for MS-DOS and Windows32, copy the files in the `pc'
 directory (_except_ for `ChangeLog') to the directory with the rest of
 the `gawk' sources, then invoke `make' with the appropriate target name
 as an argument to build `gawk'.  The `Makefile' copied from the `pc'
 directory contains a configuration section with comments and may need
 to be edited in order to work with your `make' utility.
 
    The `Makefile' supports a number of targets for building various
 MS-DOS and Windows32 versions.  A list of targets is printed if the
 `make' command is given without a target.  As an example, to build
 `gawk' using the DJGPP tools, enter `make djgpp'.  (The DJGPP tools
 needed for the build may be found at
 `ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/'.)  To build a native
 MS-Windows binary of `gawk', type `make mingw32'.
 
    The 32 bit EMX version of `gawk' works "out of the box" under OS/2.
 However, it is highly recommended to use GCC 2.95.3 for the compilation.
 In principle, it is possible to compile `gawk' the following way:
 
      $ ./configure
      $ make
 
    This is not recommended, though.  To get an OMF executable you should
 use the following commands at your `sh' prompt:
 
      $ CFLAGS="-O2 -Zomf -Zmt"
      $ export CFLAGS
      $ LDFLAGS="-s -Zcrtdll -Zlinker /exepack:2 -Zlinker /pm:vio -Zstack 0x6000"
      $ export LDFLAGS
      $ RANLIB="echo"
      $ export RANLIB
      $ ./configure --prefix=c:/usr
      $ make AR=emxomfar
 
    These are just suggestions for use with GCC 2.x.  You may use any
 other set of (self-consistent) environment variables and compiler flags.
 
    If you use GCC 2.95 it is recommended to use also:
 
      $ LIBS="-lgcc"
      $ export LIBS
 
    You can also get an `a.out' executable if you prefer:
 
      $ CFLAGS="-O2 -Zmt"
      $ export CFLAGS
      $ LDFLAGS="-s -Zstack 0x6000"
      $ LIBS="-lgcc"
      $ unset RANLIB
      $ ./configure --prefix=c:/usr
      $ make
 
      NOTE: Compilation of `a.out' executables also works with GCC 3.2.
      Versions later than GCC 3.2 have not been tested successfully.
 
    `make install' works as expected with the EMX build.
 
      NOTE: Ancient OS/2 ports of GNU `make' are not able to handle the
      Makefiles of this package.  If you encounter any problems with
      `make', try GNU Make 3.79.1 or later versions.  You should find
      the latest version on `ftp://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/'.
