Hi, When compiling screen for MacOS 10.5 (Leopard) it tries to use utmp.h and to write to /var/run/utmp.h (which doesn't exist). >From /usr/include/utmp.h: /* * This header file is DEPRECATED and only provided for compatibility * with previous releases of Mac OS X. Use of these structures, especially * in 64-bit computing, may corrupt the utmp, wtmp and lastlog files. * * Use the utmpx APIs instead. */ Any chance of screen using umtpx in the near future? I saw that utmpx is supported for some other platforms, but my first layman attempts to make this work for MacOS 10.5 didn't work. c -- \black\trash movie _C O W B O Y_ _C A N O E_ _C O M A_ Ein deutscher Western/A German Western -->> http://www.blacktrash.org/underdogma/ccc.html -->> http://www.blacktrash.org/underdogma/ccc-en.html
