I just thought i'd try this list also since I haven't been receiving TeXHax for a few days.] I am attempting to install TeX 2.93 and friends from the latest Washington tape onto a 3B2/400 with the floating point C compiler (fpcc). All goes well until time to compile the last module of C code (tex8.c). The compile fails with a compiler error indicating that the switch table has overflowed. This also happens when I try to compile DVItype for the trip test. I have looked everywhere for some kind of switch I can set to avoid this. I looked in web2c, tex.web (forget it, I don't pretend to understand it) and other places. I did find a reference in tex.web to something that causes defualt cases to be created by web interpreters. That is what seems to be needed to fix my problem. If you have experienced this, please respond directly to me. I appreciate any help anyone can supply Michael Harpe Computer Operations Advisor Dahlem CADL ******************************************************************************** "Have a Bud, get sudsed, vote for Spuds!" - Bloom County Michael Harpe BITNET: MEHARP01@ULKYVX 203 Henry Vogt Building PSTN: 502-588-7620 University of Louisville AMPR: N4PLE @ ARTS Louisville, KY 40292 ------------------------------------- To join this group or have your thoughts in the next issue, please send electronic mail to Ken Davis at the following address; {pacbell,netsys,hoptoad,well}!lamc!info-3b2-request The views expressed in Info-3b2 Digest are those of the individual authors only. ********************* End of Info-3b2 Digest *********************
