Hi there,

when I compile the head I get this message

So what am I missing. Is it GTK+2? Do I really need it? Is there some way to compile the compiler without needing to bother with this?

Sounds like you are missing the readline libraries, or you have a different version of readline. You should have readline 4, preferably. Cheers, Simon
