        Hi,

Anybody else having problems with emxomf?
To me it appears to be completely broken...
Just going into include directory and running e.g.
"emxomf -s -l libstdc++.a" (the standard to generate
a .lib from a .a, isn't it?) just gives me a "usage
message", i.e.

(snipp)
and no .lib file.

It isn't completely broken... it is used to build Mozilla and I am 
posting this from Mozilla Mail which I built with gcc 3.3.5 beta 4.

Try emxomf -t -s -p128 (Stolen from MakeOmfLibs.cmd)

The -l option is apparently not working correctly. I've put this on the 
todo list.

Btw. -p128 isn't necessary. The page size should be automagically 
terminated, only use it when the magic fails.

Kind Regards,
  knut

PS. There should be no reason for converting libstdc++.a, 
MakeOmfLibs.cmd already does this.
