1.7.1 Compilation Problems

ccbl -e filename program-name

From the information in this file, you will probably be able to determine the cause of the problem and make the necessary changes. If not, we would be pleased to assist you. Here's an overview of the information we need to know, most of which you can simply fax to us:
