Now that Microport is Chapter 11, all of us who do not have ksh and want Elm are SOL. We can't get ksh anymore. I never even got my 2.4 upgrade I had an upgrade contract for (sigh). So I guess it is time to hack the configurations scripts manualy (UGH!). My question to the net is, will some kind sould send me a uuencoded binary of ksh, or maybe their config files so I can hack them to account for smail ?

My understanding is that the Microport sh/csh is compiled using the small memory model. Would 'tcsh' run configure? You can pick up a copy of the tcsh source from several of the archive sites...

I've got ksh on a box at work running uport. I don't remember 2.3 very well since we didn't run it long, but my 2.4 (at least) has ksh, and I never grabbed it from their bbs... -- ________Robert J.

I've got ksh on a box at work Ksh was shipped with the Software Development System, starting with the (I think) 2.3 version of the set.

A side note - is the Uport BBS still up and running? I've been trying to access it for the past week or so. The modems answer, but I don't get a prompt no matter what I try. > -John Plocher Thomas V.

Sorry, John.... Ksh was not included with the SV/AT 2.3 Software Development Distribution. It was available on the uPort BBS, but those of us too cheap to pay long distance to CA didn't get it:-). My upgrade notice for 2.4 indicates it was included in that distribution. Unfortunately, my 2.4 upgrade never arrived, despite a paid-up Upgrade Support Contract, or whatever it was called. Other than the support contract bit of fraud, I was always happy (and still am) with the V/AT product. Right now, I could really use ksh to get Elm to configure. mike borza. -- Michael Borza work: <antel!mike@maccs.McMaster.CA> Antel Optronics Inc. home: <boopsy!mike@maccs.McMaster.CA> (416)335-5507 occasionally: <nusip@maccs.McMaster.CA> 3325B Mainway, Burlington, Ont., Canada L7M 1A6
