I have recently posted Ease version 3.0 to alt.sources. If you include Patch #1, it works fine on A/UX. Ease is a high level language for sendmail. You can convert sendmail into ease on A/UX using: cfc -i -C UNI </usr/lib/sendmail.cf >sendmail.ease To compile ease back into sendmail, use et <sendmail.ease >sendmail.cf Ease does not replace sendmail. It augments sendmail by eliminating the need to learn an obscure syntax. In the testing, I noticed some bugs: Make has the well known error of using the value of the environment variable SHELL to run scripts. I had to add the line SHELL=/bin/sh to the Makefile. The A/UX install is not compatible with any other version of install I have ever used. I really don't understand why Apple would break a common Unix utility. The simple install file directory command does not work with A/UX. Can someone explain to me the reason? -- Bruce G. Barnett barnett@crd.ge.com uunet!crdgw1!barnett
