[net.micro.att] UNIX PC quickie environment, installment 1

adam@npois.UUCP (Adam V. Reed) (05/20/85)

I received several mail messages asking me to post my quickie blit-like
environment for the UNIX PC. This is the first of several installments I
am posting in response to those requests. Subsequent installments will
be posted to net.micro.att ONLY.

The design goal was to provide two of my favorite blit environments, one
window and two-window with minimal waste of screen space, on the AT&T
UNIX PC. The quickie environment had to be available without the ua,
since I like things to be reasonably fast; and also under the ua, for
occasions such as system administration chores, when I do use the ua.

The quickie environment is composed of a makefile, four C programs, and
modifications to standard $HOME/Environment and $HOME/.kshrc. I am
posting it not as a "product" but as an example of how one can hack a
customized personal UNIX environment on the UNIX PC. Please feel free to
make use of techniques shown in the following examples to hack your own
environment to suit your own preferences and ways of work.
