[net.micro] Coherent....

djs (12/09/82)

Has anyone had experience with the UNIX-like Coherent  operating system by
Mark Williams, Co.? I would be interested in getting any comments about the
system (by mail); particularly, how close to UNIX is it and what micros will
it run on?

Does anyone out there know if I can versions of
NROFF and other Unix (tm) programs to run on my IBM PC?

Fat chance...huh?

Okay, well how about this Coherent OS I've heard about?
Is it any good?

Chmee...

Coherent does list nroff.  It's supposed to be compatible
with V7.  I don't know, I haven't been able to buy a IBM
PC yet, so I can't tell you.
