[comp.unix.questions] Second Source Sought for Lint

greg@ncr-sd.SanDiego.NCR.COM (Greg Noel) (01/29/88)

I posted this a couple of weeks ago to comp.sources.wanted and got a
bunch of replies from people that wanted the same information (and an
intriguing suggestion from John Gilmore that might be feasible), but
no actual answers.  I'm posting it again to a wider audience in the
hopes that somebody here might know something.

We are looking for an alternative source for lint, the program that
finds pieces of fluff (non-portable or other problematic structures)
in C programs.  If anybody is aware of such a thing, I'd appreciate
it if you could mail me the particulars.

We are considering making lint available to programmers on a non-Unix
machine; so the cost of a license just for a single program is too
much.  Although a public-domain version would be ideal, it is quite
possible that we can spend some money on it; don't hesitate to tell
me about a lint that is for sale.

Please send mail to Greg.Noel@SanDiego.NCR.COM or greg@ncr-sd.UUCP.
Ncr-sd talks to ihnp4, cbosgd, and sdcsvax, among many others; we are
quite easy to reach.  If all else fails, my Snail Mail address is:
      Greg Noel, Unix Guru
      NCR Corporation, E&M Rancho Bernardo
      16550 W. Bernardo Drive
      San Diego, CA  92127
If you're interested in what I learn, drop me a line as well, and I'll
mail you a copy of my report (or post it if there's enough interest).

Tks,
