Since i was bored, and wanted to mess with the code, I finally installed DJGPP
for DOS. and wanted to install Kevedit! but:

C:\djgpp\bin>make
gcc -o kevedit.o kevedit.c -DCANGLOB -DDOSEMU -s -O3 -fexpensive-optimizations -
fomit-frame-pointer -finline-functions -funroll-loops -march=pentium -DSDL `sdl-
config -fcflags` -DkeveditVERSION=\"0.5.0\" -DDATAPATH=\"/usr/local/share/keve
dit\" -DBINPATH=\"/usr/local/bin\" -c
gcc.exe: `sdl-config: No such file or directory (ENOENT)
cc1.exe: error: unrecognized command line option "-fcflags`"
make.exe: *** [kevedit.o] Error 1

It looks like i need SDL-config! I already have SDL installed but
that error just keeps coming up!

Can anyone solve this?

I am sorry, but THIS thread is for Kevedit, and how to compile it.
not just plain banging heads with keyboards. i also ment to say
''Go AWAY!'' but it is naughty of me to say that, is it?

After all, You really need to be on topic. Because I just need a
little help!

Maybe if you contact Kev himself he'd be happy to help you. :)

if you installed SDL then you should have the sdl-config script

if you don't have it, it really is not very difficult to find

You should have to run the configure script before you can run make in kevedit 0.5.1. Are you sure you aren't using an older version of the source?

The configure script should try to detect the location of sdl-config, which is included in the SDL development package. I don't remember how SDL is installed in djgpp, though.

I remember now: when compiling with djgpp, native dos display is used, not SDL. The configure script should detect this and omit SDL dependence from the generated Makefiles.

SDL is only needed if you are compiling the windows version (IMHO the better version) using MingW. Again, the configure script should detect it automatically as long as sdl-config is in your path.
