I tried to build pd on my Linux box last night and 'make' died with the following error:
[root@t0ast src]# make
cc -O2 -w2 -fullwarn -DUNIX -DIRIX -DPD -I. -I../tk/generic -I../tcl/generic -c -o ../obj/g_canvas.o g_canvas.c |& head -20
/bin/sh: syntax error near unexpected token &' /bin/sh: -c: line 1:cc -O2 -w2 -fullwarn -DUNIX -DIRIX -DPD -I. -I../tk/generic -I../tcl/generic -c -o ../obj/g_canvas.o g_canvas.c |& head -20'
make: *** [g_canvas.o] Error 2
I'm using RH5.1 and the full Tcl/Tk distributions which I believe are in the right place:
/usr/local/tk8.0.3, etc.
I will grab the RPM and see if it works. In the meantime, does this look like an easily solved problem?

Yes, this looks like an easily solvable problem.
Do a
make -f makefile.linux
or copy the makefile.linux to makefile. (RTFM)
One word about the Tcl/Tk location:
You have to make sure that the compiler/linker finds Tcl/Tk.
/usr/local is *not* the standard location. So if you have the include files in e.g /usr/local/include/tk.h the current makefile setup wonŽt find it !
YouŽd have to edit the makefile.linux for making it aware of the location. This is done by adding -I/usr/local/include to the CFLAGS and -L/usr/local/lib to the link flags.

Yes, I'm very sorry. I was trying do to this late at night and after using 'make' on a couple of other programs. I just wasn't following directions, and I'm very embarassed (as if that's any consolation).
So now I SEEM to have compiled and installed everything and yet I get this message when starting pd:
Pd version 0.23 compiled Fri Nov 13 16:28:40 MST 1998 adding /usr/local/lib/pd/externs port 5400 Waiting for connection request... TCL_LIBRARY=/usr/local/tcl/library TK_LIBRARY=/usr/local/tk/library /usr/local/bin/pd-gui 5400 bad host?
The paths included in the message are 'correct,' I mean they DO point to things that actually exist, so I wonder - what could 'bad host' refer to in this case?
Thank you for any help!
Bill

pd tries to connect to itŽs GUI via sockets. Normally this is done via localhost on port 5400. To make this work you should have a localhost entry in your /etc/hosts file. This entry is standard on every Unix system.
127.0.0.0 localhost
