Announcing a new Integral Personal Computer product:
Product: HP 82987A Software Engineering ROM Module
Retail Cost: $1195
Price List: November 1
Formal Introduction: Oct 20 @ Unix Expo, New York
The HP 82987A Software Engineering ROM Module consists of "approximately 160 of
the most useful and frequently used HP-UX commands" (list to follow), six 3.5"
inch microflexible discs containing the remaining HP-UX commands and on-line
documentation, and a "Getting Started" guide.
The ROM module installs into one of the I/O ports and uses half a slot. After
installation, the following commands are available:
adjust csplit fold lsx red tee
admin ctags format_disc make rev time
ar cut get mkdev rm time_of_day
ar.ranlib date getopt mkdir rmdir touch
as delta grep mknod rmnl tr
awk deroff head mm rpn true
basename df hostname more rsh tsort

cp fdb ls prof tail xd
cpio fgrep lsf ps tar yacc
cpp file lsr pwd tbl zcat
csh find
* The program 'include' extracts header files from a rom-resident file.
Using a custom rom-resident shared library and various data compression
techniques, almost 5 Megabytes of code and data have been squeezed into
2 Megabytes of ROM. These ROM executable commands have decreased
memory requirements, decreased load time, and eliminated or freed Megabytes
of hard disc space ($$$). As a contributing development engineer, it
is not uncommon for me to be compiling, editing two files, perusing
a header file with more, and running kermit ALL in seperate windows. My
major complaint now is running out of 'horses'. Now, if I can only convince my
boss my 20% increase in productivity should be matched with with a comparable
raise!
By installing the Software Engineering Module into the Integral PC one truly
has a transportable Software Engineering workstation.
