 Information about GPutils for eComStation (OS/2)
 ================================================

 This bnary distribution of GPUTILS for eComStation (OS/2) has been built
 with Open Watcom C/C++ compiler. The executables are provided with a
 'bldlevel' signature and have been compressed with LXLite.


 Building information
 --------------------
 The makefiles for Wmake are included (unZIP package with -dir option!).
 Rexx scripts 'buildlevel.cmd' (called by the makefiles) to generate the
 bldlevel signatures are included too, and require Object Rexx.
 Compilation of some modules generate warnings which can be ignored:
   - missing prototype for 'unlink', which is defined in 'io.h' for the
     Watcom compiler.
   - some functions are redefined (duplicate prototypes),


 Issues
 ------
 - vsnprintf.c requires unconditionally config.h (normally created by
   autoconf/automake, received example from David Barnett). With this
   config.h it vsnprintf in libiberty.lib GPASM traps. When leaving it out no
   trap and no link errors!
