JOVE now runs on the Macintosh and under XENIX.  You can get the full
distribution from cs.rochester.edu via anonymous ftp by snarfing the file
public/jove.tar.4.9.

JOVE will be posted to comp.sources.unix some time very soon...

You can also get the full source and IBM PC binaries.  The following is
from Karl Gegenfurtner (karl@hipl.psych.nyu.edu), who did the PC version.

Here's the current state on how to get IBM binaries, etc.:

FTP: from hipl.psych.nyu.edu (128.122.132.2) 
     In the directory pub there's a README file with the latest info.
     The relevant files are in jove*.arc. The Unix version is a
     compressed tar-file jove-4.9.tar.Z.
     from simtel20.arpa
     Jove is in the directory PD1:<MSDOS.EDITOR> as JOVE*.ARC. 

BITNET: Bitnet users can access simtel20 archives via a Listserver. If
     you need more info on that, mail me a note and I'll send you detailed
     instructions.

USENET: This is a little problem. There are several possibilities. If you
     have the Microsoft C Compiler V. 5.0, you can get the sources from
     an archive site (once they are posted in comp.sources.unix) and
     compile. If you only have Turbo C, brianc@cognos.uucp has diffs to
     get Jove compiled under Turbo C.  If you don't have any chance to
     compile the sources, send me a note. If sufficiently many people are
     interested, I can post the executable to comp.binaries.ibm.pc, if
     there aren't enough requests, I can send the executable by email.

Ken Mitchum (km@cadre.dsl.pittsburgh.edu) did the macintosh version.  He
says you can get the Macintosh binary (and the rest of the distribution)
from
	cadre.dsl.pittsburgh.edu
The following files are in ~ftp/pub/jove/ on that system:

   MacJove.Hqx binary
   cmds.doc    for people without sources
   Readme.mac

The macintosh binary will also be posted to <info-mac> at
sumex-aim.stanford.edu and will be archived there within the next 2-3
weeks.  We're not sure about comp.binaries.mac ...

With any luck a VMS version will be available in a few weeks.  The diffs
for porting JOVE to Microport System V/AT should be incorporated into the
next version, as well.

You can send bug reports to any of us.
