The version of K-Star we have for our KFPS-4 is so elderly it's more likely to have been written _by_ Ada than _in_ Ada :-). I know it's possible to pull upgrades from shiva.com, but the UK's transatlantic gateway doesn't seem to know that site by name. Can anyone supply a numeric address for it? Better still, does anyone know of a closer site which holds these files? AdvThanksance, Julian. Disclaimer: I have no reason to believe that any version of K-Star was written in Ada. -- | Julian Turnbull, | Phone: +44 31 650 5124 | Department of Computer Science | JANET: jst@uk.ac.ed.lfcs | University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh EH9 3JZ, | ARPA: jst%ed.lfcs | Scotland, U.K. | @nsf-relay.ac.uk

My understanding is that K-STAR has always been written with the traditional tools: directly in binary, with little magnetic needles scratching on the distribution disks, one by one. This is how God programs, too, by the way. Just teasing, - RL "Bob" Morgan Networking Systems Stanford -------

In article <3055@skye.cs.ed.ac.uk> I asked if anyone could supply the numeric Internet address for shiva.com. I now have it (thanks, Joseph!) - 192.80.57.1 if anyone else needs to know. -- | Julian Turnbull, | Phone: +44 31 650 5124 | Department of Computer Science | JANET: jst@uk.ac.ed.lfcs | University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh EH9 3JZ, | ARPA: jst%ed.lfcs | Scotland, U.K. | @nsf-relay.ac.uk
