Does anyone know how to get the Graph unit to compile?
Download GRX from the library page on the GPC website or from http://grx.gnu.de and follow the installation instructions.
Actually, that won't help him very much. He would first need to build GRX for Mingw. The makefile.w32 in the GRX package does not work (for one thing, all the "if exist ..." lines fail miserably, both under command.com and any other shell).
in fact it works under command.com, but you need to use mingw32-make instead of make, and set your DOS box parameters so that it sees only mingw and not msys. But you are right, it would be much more natural to have makefiles for msys.
The file requires a substantial
amount of editing before it can be used. Eventually, I ended up creating a "makefile.msys" which uses the MSYS tools for building the package (works for building for Mingw (i.e., native Windows) and MSYS targets, and also for Cygwin). Perhaps I should call it makefile.gnuwin32 ...
I am not sure who on the GRX team to send this file to. It is certainly needed for anyone who wishes to build GRX on Windows, using gcc.
