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.
