Dear Richard,<div><br></div><div>Welcome to the ML side of the Gambit community!</div><div><br></div><div>While the way you compiled Gambit below is really interesting, the ordinary way I and I believe others are used with, is:</div>

<div><div><br></div><div>$ wget <a href="http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~gambit/download/gambit/v4.3/source/gambc-v4_3_2-devel.tgz">http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~gambit/download/gambit/v4.3/source/gambc-v4_3_2-devel.tgz</a></div>

<div>$ tar zxf gambc-v4_3_2-devel.tgz</div><div>$ cd gambc-v4_3_2-devel</div><div>$ ./configure --enable-single-host</div><div>$ make</div></div><div><br></div><div>Gambit is now in ./gsc/gsc and ./gsi/gsi , ready to be used. And you may install it into the system:</div>

<div><br></div><div># make install</div><div><br></div><div>and then suitably link gsc to the Gambit binary, sth like:</div><div><br></div><div># ln -s /usr/bin/gsc /usr/local/Gambit-C/v4.6.0/bin/gsc</div><div><br></div>
