Re: Problem compiling x5250

Closer! It took me a bit to figure out the autogen stuff (a bit of a source
rookie I'm afraid) but finally got that worked out, but on the next compile
for x5250 I got this far during the make:

x5250term.c: In function ‘x5250_terminal_waitevent’:
x5250term.c:1976:8: warning: passing argument 1 of
‘XRefreshKeyboardMapping’ from incompatible pointer type [enabled by
default]
/usr/include/X11/Xlib.h:3075:12: note: expected ‘struct XMappingEvent *’
but argument is of type ‘union XEvent *’

I've already installed and compiled tn5250 0.17.4, so it's confusing to

that I'd be getting this:

Please use a development tn5250 available at:

if you want to understand why that is, there are many good books on
the design of operating systems. please pass them along to redmond
when you're done reading them :)
