Howdy all,

This should be a simple thing, but it's something I have never
learned.... How do you tell the compiler to include directories in
its compilation? I'm compiling on OS X, and have the X11 layer
installed. When I try to compile my own software, the compiler
complains that it can't find all the X11 include files. They are in
/usr/X11R6/include, but I don't know how to tell my system to look
there to find the header files. If anyone can tell me how to set the
compiler to find certain directories, I would appreciate it!

I did get the recent version to compile on OS X, though I had to
massage the makefiles to get it to work. I didn't write all the
changes down though; I'll go back through it this weekend and try to
do it properly. But, it was kind of cool to pull up fdesign on my
home system. :)

Also, are we still missing some items? I asked about adding a
routine for double precision XYplot points, and T.C. said he had
created that routine, but I can't find it anywhere in the source
distribution.

Ok, that's enough for a Friday night I think..... :)
