Would someone please tell me where I can get complete UW sources/binaries. I want to install them on our new SparcStation. Sumex has an incomplete version. Jerzy Giergiel. UCI Physics.

Sumex has an incomplete version. Yes, please post this to the net if anyone knows! I'd like to have the source for uw. It's a very nice program; it would be nicer if I could add Kermit support to it... << Brian >> -- | Brian S.

Is the Macintosh source for uw around >anywhere? I've been basically off-net for about the past year, so a lot of UW inquiries and mail have gone unanswered. I don't think the UW distribution is still available on MORDOR.S1.GOV. Anonymous FTP access was shut off there in the wake of bug fixes after the Internet virus incident. At present I (the author) don't even have an online copy of the UW distribution. I've just changed jobs, and although I'm in Illinois, most of my files and hardware are still sitting in California. RASCAL is your best bet. I never distributed the Macintosh source code for UW. There was to be one final, complete and wonderful distribution in which sources were to be included; however, my job changed and I ran out of time. I wanted to clean up some of the horrible things which still reflect its origins in (ugh) Megamax C before I'd let anyone else see it. -- John Bruner Center for Supercomputing R&D, University of Illinois bruner@uicsrd.csrd.uiuc.edu (217) 244-4476 John Bruner Center for Supercomputing R&D, University of Illinois bruner@uicsrd.csrd.uiuc.edu (217) 244-4476

Hi, I went to RASCAL, and found that they only had version 2.10 of UW. However, the simtel archive does have version 4.2, and it works great. The Sumex archive also has it, but their binhex file is messed up and gets a CRC error when you try to decode it. Cheers, Pete hugo@sunapee.dartmouth.edu
