Here's the scoop. I did manage to pull down the complete CVS to my PC. I used the brute force method of doing a recursive copy of fractcvs to /home/tim, and then doing a cvs checkout from /home/tim/fractcvs instead of /home/fractint/fractcvs.
I did a checkout of the entire "fractint" module. Is that what I was supposed to do? I seem to have gotten the entire tree.
Yes, that's correct. You should have the complete source for Fractint/Xfractint. The float only source is retrieved in a similar fashion. Using tags will have the same result because I just tagged everything. It doesn't need to be that way, but it was easy. It is also handy to be able to look at the DOS specific code when trying to see how to fix the *nix specific code.
What happened before was I pulled down everything up to "extras" alphabetically, and nothing thereafter.
I still need to know what the DOS build procedure is. Can I build directly in my fractcvs/fractint sandbox, or do you have a script that mashes what is needed into one directory? (It really should build as it is in the sandbox).
Using makefrac.bat from the fractint sandbox will build Fractint. The directory magic occurs in the fractint.mak file. Jonathan
