The error your getting is due to a missing separator character at the
beginning of the line most likely, and can try and change that and re-upload
the altered makefile. As for the compiler generating the wrong type
of executable image goes, this makefile was created on a windows
based pc, therefore that's all it knows about, it was a bit of a miracle I
got *ANY* makefile created. A possible option is to figure out exactly
what type of execution image a real linux-based system expects and
manually edit the makefile, I could try to do that once I figure that out,
but even if these 2 problems are corrected, you still have to change
what compiler is called, find this line (toward the top of the file):
CPP=cl.exe
change to:
CPP=gcc.exe (or whatever compiler your linux system uses).
cl.exe is a microsoft windows based compiler, it will not generate
linux images as far as I know....
Once enough changes are made to this file, there's a reasonable
chance it might just work properly...

@jBailey:
As a general note, unix programs have no extention... its just gcc not gcc.exe
Also the cl.exe can be safely changed to just cl on some systems.

How is the compiler ever going to know I want a Linux Release?  |
That just simply means that you didn't specify a config so it defaulted to the GL_WinROTT Windows 32 bit config...
The config says, and I quote:
| Quote: | | NMAKE /f "GL_WinRott.mak" CFG="GL_WinRott - Win32 Release" |
First thing nmake is a Windows C compiler. and the switches will not wirk in *nix with the "/" because that means to point to the root directory.
So:
make -f GL_Winrott.mak CFG=put the desired config here
So far all I have found was the default config, I will attempt to edit this if I don't find something else...
I will tell you if I find more.

Sounds good, if you can't, I'll try editing the makefile by hand and
re-upload... |

Hey jBailey, could you possibly tell me what "Midl.exe" is? Is this for Midi or something?
Edit: Also what is bscmake.exe? 
Sorry, I am not familiar with the Windows dev tools. Granted I know a few things on Windows development... But not a lot.

Heh, this may take a while... Google reveals some of these items but some don't have *nix equivalents...
Only if there was a Unix coder around here. =\

Midl.exe is a Visual Studio compiler tool i think. bscmake.exe, from a link to
msdn:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/87x7wc99(VS.80).aspx
Yea, a *nix coder would certainly help. What if we ask icculus?

I dunno, that would be sweet though... Icculus is who I got most of my ports off of.

Unfortunatly, I don't know of any unix equivalents to these compiler tools,
My best advice at the moment is to talk to the guys over at icculus... |

| Thanks for posting that. That might be helpful when I'm able to make more sense of the code. Man, I barely remember that the cin and cout commands exists, much less how to do functions, loops, and search trees. Good thing I'm taking a refresher course this fall. |
