*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE *** Does anyone know where to find the routines lread and lwrite that are contained in the PD utility "ucpm.c" , a rewritten version of a v7 utility of the same name that allowed Tandy 16B's to read and write CP/M format diskettes? I have a copy of most of ucpm, but it's missing lread. We compiled netnews 2.10.2 under XENIX 3.1/3.0 and had the compiler blow up on inews.c (tstl instruction with illegal operand). Has anyone else run into this? We got netnews running by using the v7 makefile and then fixing the problems that appeared. v3.1 XENIX seems to have a problem with processes that spawn lots of processes. The August 84 Byte benchmark has a shell script that creates lots of processes; this works fine under 3.0 but blows up under 3.1, both on a 6000 and a "Snapped" 16. There does not appear to be any major improvement between 3.0 and 3.1, incidentally.
