Hey all.. Very odd problem, which has just got me fuzzled. Got Pennmush 176p16_NT from that download site, although when I try to compile.. It gives me this.

$ make
(cd ..; make)
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/Owner/pennmush'
make[1]: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/Owner/pennmush'
make: *** [first] Error 2

And I am in the src folder. What's the deal?

Have you read the "INSTALL" file? Usually you have to configure before doing make, as the creates the Makefile.

From that file:


B. Installation from source

     The quickstart version of the installation is:

1. On win32 only, install proper tools or read win32/README.txt.
2. sh Configure -d
3. create options.h, or make update
4. make install
5. possibly make customize
6. Read game/README and follow those instructions
