    Coercing timespec to time_t

    Wait a minute... time_t is not a structure, it is an integer holding the number of seconds since the begin of the "epoch" (which is January 1, 1970, 0:00:00 UTC). struct tm is a structure and contains the elements tm_year, tm_mon, tm_mday, tm_hour and so on. // Get the current time...

    Fink problem

    I don't know about Panther versions shipped with a machine. The Panther I bought has an additional Xcode CD which contains the Developer Tools. You say that Fink has worked before. However, Fink has always required the Developer Tools to be installed on my system, so I wonder how you got it...

    Fink problem

    The nm utility is a quite vital one. I doubt that it just disappears on its own. It is part of the Apple Developer Tools so you could cure the problem by re-installing them.

    MacOSX for Unix geeks?!?

    Do an echo $PATH in the xterm to see what the PATH is set to. If it doesn't contain /sw/bin you probably didn't source (i.e. execute in the calling shell context by putting a . in front of the script) the /sw/bin/init.sh script in .profile: . /sw/bin/init.sh

    gotoxy substitute in os x?

    I admit, programming DOS graphics gives you an insight into the inner workings of a graphics processor, e.g. how video memory is organized etc.. In today's world with Java frameworks and high level graphics abstractions like OpenGL it seems that this kind of knowledge does not matter anymore...

    SDL error messages are not helpful...

    In this case the debugger most likely is unable to locate some shared library - this is at least what I often experience. The debugger has a console window which you can bring into view, this will show you detailed messages during startup of your program. You will probably see a message that a...

    SDL error messages are not helpful...

    Should be easy: Just run it in the debugger, it should halt on the error and show you the offending source code line (presumed you compiled it with debug symbols enabled).

    SQL/Java Question

    Your VALUES list just contains literal strings, not the actual values of the Java variables you setup before. The error is caused by the fact that you assign the literal string 'theDate1' to a data value. You must provide a data literal like {d '2003-11-25'} to avoid this error.

    again: resize a partition?

    That's great info Bob, thank you. Not exactly what I need, however. Having the opportunity to manipulate the partition table is great, but resizing a partition - my original question - is a different story.

    10.3 - fink and X11 troubles

    You need to install the X11 SDK from apple, otherwise the relevant header and library files are not there. The SDK is on your Xcode DevTools CD which comes with Panther.
