I'm glad you got it building but can I clarify a few things so we can fix this in the repo please?

1) Is the additional include to include\curl necessary? Anything that looks in that directory should already have the curl directory prefixed in the #include statement.

Sure.

Yep. Unless we try and force the output for the vtls files into that directory it isn't needed.

2) How did you fix the /f when trying to link ./file.obj?

By having the wrong form of slash in there Borland's tlib is interpreting those file names as options so ./file becomes /f and vtls/openssl became /o (as we previously saw)

I see from makefile.Watcom that there is an additional line for ./ based files which I thought you might need but wasn't sure so didn't include it in my last suggested fix - it would mean that line 97 becomes:

OBJS1 = ./$(CSOURCES:.c=.obj)
OBJS2 = $(OBJS1:vtls/=)
OBJS3 = $(OBJS2: = ./)
NOHYPHEN = $(OBJS3:-=_)

However I would be keen to know how you resolved that problem as I can't see it in the makefile you placed on pastebin.

Kind Regards

Steve
