I want to port KCL to either AT&T 3B2 and/or 3B1 machines. Any
hints or suggestions will be helpful. Yes, I know this is quite a big
application for this machines but some departments are not willing to
have a staff or money for couple of suns and vaxes (graduates students
will do) and have supported lisp product. Thanks.

The makes aren't right, and we found out one of the system .h files had to be changed in our ATT delivered c code, but it's an afternoon's bit of work. The 3b1 code has been an independant study of mine...only major hassle was with the unixsave.c file which writes memory images to disk - seems the 3b1 loader is serious about it's section pointer offsets, unlike the 3b2 loader. I'm working to document the changes I made for the 3b1 version (from the 3b2 version), but disk space is a hassle on the pc-7300 (20mb) version I borrowed from RIT, and my nice 67mb 3b1 was delivered without an os, so it will be a little while till I'm finished but thanksgiving looks like a good target. As there have been other requests, I will probably offer to upload diff files against the 3b1 code, if that's of interest. Oh yes, I wrote a new file called unixpcsave.c to replace the 3b1 version. Good luck. And if you get a version of the documentation for plain old nroff, could someone let me know where to get it? Thanks.
