>From article <727@wucs1.wustl.edu>, by kahn@wucs1.wustl.edu (Michael Kahn): > Has anybody done a port of CAP (Columbia AppleTalk Package) for > System V unix machines? Specifically, I am trying to port CAP 5.0 to > a Silicon Graphics 4D machine running Unix Sys V r 3.1 If you know sys V and are careful, porting CAP to it is not all that difficult. A year or so ago, when I was first introduced to Sys V by way of a Masscomp, I ported CAP to it without too many problems. We also modified it to use one of Kinetics MultiBus FastPath cards and that is where most of our problems were. A straight forward port runs well but if you're so inclined Sys V has facilities that allow you to improve the code if you're so inclined. -David C.
