Does anyone have the answer to this question for xenix 2.1.3? I've got the sysinfo include file, but an nlist informs me that the symbol is not defined. Has anyone written a 'top' type program for xenix? Is there somewhere I can get a little more information on some of the symbols defined in /xenix? What do the symbols prefixed with _dk, or _fl refer to? -- Brian Campbell uucp: decvax!utzoo!dciem!nrcaer!cognos!brianc Cognos Incorporated mail: 3755 Riverside Drive, Ottawa, Ontario, K1G 3N3 (613) 738-1440 fido: sysop@163/8
