mcvert comes in source form and runs on a wide variety of UNIX
machines, each with its own binary format and execution environment
for programs. Therefore, mcvert needs to be compiled for your
machine before you can run it. Here's how to do it.
o Ready a directory to hold mcvert
cd
mkdir mcvert
cp mcvert-nnn.shar mcvert
cd mcvert
o Create the individual files from the Shell Archive (shar) file
sh mcvert-nnn.shar
o Reorder the Makefile as appropriate for your machine
Note that there are a number of variables with which to fiddle,
and that the last definition wins.
For example, when compiling for AT&T's 3B2, reorder so these lines
are last within each group:
XOBJ= gettod.o
LIBS=
CFLAGS_M= -DTIMEVAL -DULONG
CFLAGS_N = -DNOBYTEORDER -DNOBZEROBCOPY
o Make the binary and the man page
make
o Read the man page for a full description
more mcvert.man
o Invoke the binary without arguments for a short description
mcvert
