Well, I'm the sysadmin for a small counseling agency here in Columbus. I just found this newsgroup the other day, & just today got caught up. We're running an IBM PS/2 Model 80 with SCO Xenix V2.2.3 (hopefully soon to be 2.3.x 9-). Although I've been playing recently with trying to get various things from comp.sources.unix to run, I'd like to find things that people *KNOW* will work with SCO's Xenix. So, are there any public FTP sites, & if so where would I find them? It's probably best to do all this in E-mail. I'm specifically looking for a version of Emacs, & would also like to know if Elm will run under Xenix (& what you have to do to get it to run so). Unfor- tunately, I can't do UUCP stuff, so I'm basically stuck using either mail or FTP to get stuff.

I'm running SCO XENIX/286 System V 2.3.2, and got Elm 2.2 and smail 2.5 up and running today with minimal difficulty. Running the Elm Configuration script on my 286 required that I patch /bin/sh to give it a bigger stack, but once that was done, everything moved along quite nicely. Now if I can just find a source of the Elm patches, I'll be even happier! 8-) -- Dick Flanagan, W6OLD, CFII, CFIG Cherokee 235 N9212W UUCP: ...!uunet!slvblc!dick GEnie: FLANAGAN Internet: slvblc!dick@uunet.UU.NET POB 155, Ben Lomond, CA 95005
