B. Build the main executable (and utilities):
# gmake
Note: If you're linking with /usr/lib/libmozjs.so, don't forget to add
"JSLIB=mozjs" to the gmake command-line
Note: If X is not installed in /usr/X11R6,
use "gmake X_PATH=/path/to/X"
Note: To debug compile/link command-line problems, adding "VERBOSE=1"
to the gmake command-line can be very helpful
Note: Warnings (if any) can be safely ignored
Note: The "current" code in the CVS repository is in a fairly constant
state of change. And often, one or more projects will not build
successfully on any given platform. This is a common occurance
and is expected in a fluid development project such as this one.
If you'd like a verifiably-buildable source code base, either
download one of the source code archives (e.g. sbbs_src.tgz) or
use a release label (tag) when checking out files from CVS.

"JSLIB=mozjs" to the gmake command-line
2: If X is not installed in /usr/X11R6,
use "gmake X_PATH=/path/to/X"

6: By default, this will build DEBUG binaries which will be larger,
slower, and consume more resources than a RELEASE build. If you
wish a RELEASE build, add "RELEASE=1" to the gmake command-line.
This will make it more difficult to send us usefull error reports
though.
C. Change to the src/sbbs3/scfg directory:
# cd /sbbs/src/sbbs3/scfg
