AIX-4.1.4
PINE-3.9.4

Hello,

Compiling 3.94 on aix4.1 (build a41) produces
tons of errors and finally hangs and never finishes!
(using a32 is not any better,  it also hangs and generates a lot of errors).

I sent the "script" capture to "[email-masked]"
but I got a automated message back!

Can someone from pine development group gets back to me ...

Thanks,

I used the following changes for PINE 3.94 on AIX 4.1.4 (build a41):

  Changed server_login in imap/ANSI/c-client/log_a41.h to match env.h. 

  Turned off optimization (-O3) in pine/makefile.a41.  The optimization
  did work, but compilation was very, very slow.  This may be why it
  appears to hang on you.  addrbook.c took the longest to compile with
  optimization.

  Turned off BACKGROUND_POST in pine/osdep/os-a41.h (though I'd like to
  use this feature eventually).

  Linked pico and pine with ncurses instead of curses (pico/makefile.a41
  and pine/makefile.a41).  This change seemed to help with a screen
  redrawing problem in pine 3.93 so I used it again with 3.94.

I can't guarantee that these are right and proper things to do, but things
seem to be working.  -- Mark Westergaard, U. of Arizona
