Can I hack _ctype_ to be available other than as an import

Can I hack _ctype_ to be available other than as an import

[Tim Harding]

Hi

I'm compiling a simple utility (xpostit) which uses Xaw and the link
fails looking for _ctype_.  I guess this is because my X11 installation
is based on b20.  I know I should download newer X11 binaries, but right
now that feels too much of a chore.  Is there a quick fix I can use
(like creating a little .c file which will provide the required symbol,
but referring to the DLL import?)

Not that I'm aware of but you're welcome to try.

I just pulled ctype_.o out of one of the b20 libraries (still had it on
backup) and added it to the end of my link line.

Seems to work.
