Thanks for your reply. It seems to work very well, for the first 17 files file0001-file0017 (they are supposed to be 21 in total), but I get the following error message, which I beleive might be for the memory usage or something like that:

mkstr
MKSTR(1) General Commands Manual MKSTR(1)NAME
mkstr - create an error message file by massaging C source
SYNOPSIS
mkstr [ - ] messagefile prefix file ...
DESCRIPTION
Mkstr is used to create files of error messages. Its use can make programs with large numbers of error diagnostics much smaller, and
reduce system overhead in running the program as the error messages do not have to be constantly swapped in and out.
Mkstr will process each of the specified files, placing a massaged version of the input file in a file whose name consists of the specified
prefix and the original name. A typical usage of mkstr would be
mkstr pistrings xx *.c
This command would cause all the error messages from the C source files in the current directory to be placed in the file pistrings and
processed copies of the source for these files to be placed in files whose names are prefixed with xx.
To process the error messages in the source to the message file mkstr keys on the string `error("' in the input stream. Each time it
occurs, the C string starting at the `"' is placed in the message file followed by a null character and a new-line character; the null
character terminates the message so it can be easily used when retrieved, the new-line character makes it possible to sensibly cat the
error message file to see its contents. The massaged copy of the input file then contains a lseek pointer into the file which can be used
to retrieve the message, i.e.:
char efilname[] = "/usr/share/pascal/pi_strings";
int efil = -1;
error(a1, a2, a3, a4)
{
char buf[256];
if (efil < 0) {
efil = open(efilname, 0);
if (efil < 0) {
oops:
perror(efilname);
exit(1);
}
}
if (lseek(efil, (long) a1, 0) || read(efil, buf, 256) <= 0)
goto oops;
printf(buf, a2, a3, a4);
}
The optional - causes the error messages to be placed at the end of the specified message file for recompiling part of a large mkstred pro-
gram.
