Hello Net,

I am looking for an implementation of DIBOL which runs under
UNIX. DIBOL is a language widely used for commercial purposes.
DEC supplies it under its oprating systems (except I believe
VMS).

I have a friend (without net access) who needs a DIBOL
implementation for UNIX/ULTRIX to run on the PDP-11's and
MicroVAXen.

If anyone could shed some light on how difficult it is to port
things from a RSTS system to this UNIX/DIBOL. Is it easy (i.e.
just recompile) or hard (will need to write your own libraries,
apply kernel changes etc.).

Please help.
Is there anyone in DECUS who could help ?
Love,
Snoops
