hey guys i am trying to figure this out youthink you can give me some advice

gcc -c -g -O2 -Wall handler.c
handler.c: In function âextract_charâ:
handler.c:824: error: invalid lvalue in assignment
handler.c:826: error: invalid lvalue in assignment
make[1]: *** [handler.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/mud/jonas/doe/game/empiremud/src'
make: *** [all] Error 2

You'll have to post the code that the error is referring to in order for us to have any idea what's going on.

This error is pretty common; check out this link which gives what is likely to be the solution to your problem, or at least show you what the general idea is.

EDIT: This thread shows the code so it would be less confusing for discussion of this to continue over there.
