[comp.windows.news] NeWS implementations, anyone?

fischer@iesd.auc.dk (Lars P. Fischer) (10/09/89)

So, we did it. Developed a commercial application using NeWS, that is.
Now, one of the promises of NeWS was that it would be easy to port to
other hosts, UNIX or not. I have heard that NeWS exists for the Mac
(grasshopper?) and that a port for OS/2 was in progress. I seem to
remember seeing NeWS for other UNIX machines than Sun. I also remember
having a list of NeWS implementations, but I'm afraid I've lost it,
alas. Anyway, it was probably pretty much outdated by now.

What I would like to know is this: How many ports of NeWS exists?
Where do I get them? Any information would be appreciated. If *you*
have ported/developed NeWS for some machine, please let me know. If
you use NeWS on a machine other that a Sun, please tell me about your
experiences.

Please mail to me. I'll summarize to the net.

Thanx,
/Lars
