Just needed the cvs version

Edit: does this work with Tiny PTC ?? and if so, do i need to reinstall it?

[rdc]

tinyptc doesn't work with the CVS version. You'll need to get RBraz's tinyptc_ext. That works just fine with the CVS version.

I tried and got a long list of errors, is there anything special to think about?

Here is the error list if anyone is interested.

Edit: the error log diddn't update: new log-->

These are linker errors; the linker couldn't find the library. Make sure you put the .bi file in the inc folder, and the .a in the lib\win32 folder (if you are on windows).

Tried reinstalling tinyPTC and tinyptc_ext, that didn't work. but when i reinstalled freebasic, updated and then installed tinyptc_ext then i got i t to work

Thx for all the hwlp shocky and rdc

really appreciated

[rdc]

It might have been that you didn't have all the libs you needed in your first install. Glad you got it working.
