I need some help please :-) I am working with a friend at porting a game from a Cyber 845 to a UN*X machine at the University of Minnesota. The port is going fine with the exception of finding out the players username. Is there a way to read the $user variable (short of including a C function call)? If it is any help the machine is an Encore Multimax. But I would like to keep all system dependencies out of this program (this is the main reason for getting it off the Cyber). Please send responses to: rutgers!umn-cs!darryl@ux.acss.umn.edu but I wouldn't mind getting some mail here either. Thanx in advance.....
