Hello All,

Could someone direct me to were I can get xmkmf and GNU make, I am
installing the enlightenment window manager and it's complaining that
the xmkmf command is not available and then suggests that I would also
need GNU make.

Any links to these programs? I am running Redhat 4.2

Thanks
Paul Cartier

Is your system installed with program development support? If yes,
then it would be highly unlikely that those utilities are not
installed. ``xmkmf'' usually lives in ``/usr/X11R6/bin/'' and
``make'' is in ``/usr/bin''.

Type ``echo $PATH'' and check if those directories are on your
executable search path.

To find any file anywhere on your system use ``find / -name "*file*name*"''
or similar (yes, you can use multiple wild-cards).

If you did not install program development support when you set up
your system, you we need to do so now. Just getting ``xmkmf'' and
``make'' won't help -- there is a lot more you need.

Cheers
