[comp.unix.xenix] Opendir ... and friends

buz@ucla-cs.UUCP (04/03/87)

Does anyone have the Xenix C-source for these functions.
The `opendir' family of programs seemed to originate
from Berkeley.  I'm not sure if BSD versions of the code
would have much in common with a Xenix version designed
to operate on a Xenix file system.

I'm asking because I was trying to bring up the new shar
program recently posted to net.sources on my Xenix system.
The new shar program breaks up shar-files into reasonable size
packages automatically, which seems like a nice feature.
It uses the opendir-family of functions.  So I seem to have
the choice of reverse engineering the opendir-family from 
manual pages, finding somebody else's code, or forgetting
the new shar.

Any comments?

I brought up the new shar program without any special problems.
If your Xenix system doesn't have opendir, it must be out of date.
