[comp.sys.amiga.tech] PBMPlus port

gilgalad@dip.eecs.umich.edu (Ralph Seguin) (06/05/90)

Hi.  Has anybody done a port of PBMPlus to the Amiga?  The whole thing
that is?  If not, I will do it.  I have done a few of them, but I don't
want to waste my time porting the whole thing if it has already been done.
Gads that program eats memory 8-)
 
		Thanks, Ralph

The pbmplus utilities on the contrib tape of the MIT R4 X Window tape
are going to replace the current pbm/R3 utilities when the 3.2 release
of X11 for the Amiga is ready sometime 3rd Q.

It was not difficult to port the pbm stuff under lattice 5.0. I
expect the pbmplus stuff should not be any harder.

Good luck with the port.

I've gotten the whole package to compile using Lattice v5.05, but due
to problems with Lattice's scanf() functions, some of the programs
won't work.  I'm still trying, though.

No kidding!  Chews up the CPU cycles, too.
