Hello everybody!
This weekend I managed to get a Linux(0.95a) system running
on my home computer. And so far it looks very promising. But I have had
some problems:
1. The em (uemacs) editor is not 100% compatible with what
I use at work. (CTRL X CTRL S whitch I use to save a file
locks the display). And I do not have the help file so I
can find out what keystrokes do what. What files should
I get to fix this problem.
2. GCC when using the #include<stdio.h> statement in a C program
the compiler complains that "limits.h" is not found. What is
limits.h, why is it not included in the gcc(binary) tar file and
where can I get this file (in what tar file)?
(Or what should I put in it?)
3. The shell is quite primitive (I'm using 4dos in MS-dos). Are there
anything better around?
4. Upgrading to new vertions of the system: As far as I know
the latest vertion is 0.95c (I've got 0.95a). Is this an
easy operation or do I have to start from scratch again?
5. Man pages. Are there any around? How much HD space do I need
to run such a thing? (I've only got about 40 MB for Linux)
6. I guess I'll post more questions soon, but this is it for now! ;-)
