There is something very fishy in that source file.

Quite possibly you need to fix the line breaks. Try using Unix2Dos program from my downloads area to change the line endings from Unix to PC style.

Where did you get the source from? The one on my download page has -DSMAUG on the compile line not -DROT.

The -DROT is there because i'm compiling a ROT code base... but i get the same errors on smaug aswell, so i thought i'd kill 2 birds with one stone...

I'll check out the Unix2Dos thing...

Unix2Dos basically converts \n to \r\n which is the way linefeeds are expected on the Dos/Windows platform.

You just change to the src directory, and type:


unix2dos *.c
unix2dos *.h
