I enjoyed reading your first post. About gettext, note that if you do not want to hardcode a specific version of gettext in your LDFLAGS/CFLAGS, you could use '/usr/local/opt/gettext/{include,lib}', or rather, the equivalent for M1 Macs, which I guess would be '/opt/homebrew/opt/gettext' ? Can't test as I'm on Intel...

On a second note, for your information the 'configure' build approach is not as well maintained as the Makefile-only approach, so it's good to make it work with the plain Makefile.

Cheers and good luck for your internship,

Philippe.
