     This patch makes trouble if you have 16 Bit int's and >16 Bits
     for pointers, like ATARI ST.
     Why not simply:
          extern FILE *popen();
     That's ok on any machine.

Another question: has anyone used Lharc for Minix?? Or more specifically,
has anyone successfully compiled the version 1.00 that's on plains?

Interestingly enough, make did not work. At all, in  fact. So, I tried
everything manually. I was able to compile all the sources, but what is 
the steps to link [asld] all of them? Is lzhuf.s the main module? 
I tried simply 

cc -o lharc *.s

but apparently all the library calls were suddenly undefined. I dunno,
I haven't put in enough time with it yet, but was wondering what the word
is on it to date.  Lharc is quite useful & would be nice if it worked
in  another good program/environment - Minix.

Yes, I'm using LHarc in both unix and minix, succesefully.

The newest version of LHarc-unix is v1.02 by Y.Tagawa, and its implemen-
tation for minix is made by Fred Van Kempen (waltje@uwalt.nl.mugnet.org).

A new patch for timezone problems when lists ms-dos-made files is presented
here, comp.os.minix.

Unfortunately I have no-access to FTP, thus I don't know where you can get
it by FTP, may be Fred Van Kempen will help you (^_^).

The followings are the listings of source-files by lharc-minix itself.

Yes.  I "ported" LHarc/UNIX 1.00 to MINIX some time ago- merely
a matter of cleaning things up and calling it 1.02/MINIX.  I
compiled it with BCC to skip the "long names to short ones"
phase.

I just got a note from the LH author (LHarc is called LH now) that he
is about to send me the newest sources for porting.  I will not port
it completely, including Makefiles and long names.  The result
will be posted here, as usual.

Fred.
