Two simple (?) questions: 1. Has anyone ported tcsh to A/UX? 2. Is it possible to use a remote printer on anoter unix computer (not running A/UX? (using the rm:... in /etc/printcap or something like that). I can't find a man-page for printcap but with /usr/ucb/lpr as a shell-script that doesn't surprise me. But in my A/UX-distribution (International 1.0) I find an /etc/printcap with a remote printer entry. That gives me the idea that it migth be possible... Right or wrong? -- =============================================================================== Per Foreby Dept of Applied Electronics perf@tde.lth.se Lund Institute of Technology, Lund, Sweden ===============================================================================

Thus you cannot do the port unless Apple provides you with csh source. > Per Foreby Dept of Applied Electronics > perf@tde.lth.se Lund Institute of Technology, Lund, Sweden -- ___________________________________________________________________ Zdenko Tomasic, UWM, Chem.

The README for tcsh says it will work with AUX....but you need the csh source code. What are the legalities of someone posting that code?

What are the legalities of someone posting that code? Unless and until the Berkeley code police certify the code as 100% free of AT&T content, and Berkeley decides to give it away, it's probably a violation of copyright and/or non-disclosure agreements to transmit csh code to anyone who does not have a BSD source license. Alternative: learn to use ksh. It comes with AUX, and is available without need for hacking. The ksh functions in the back of the KornShell book, together with what's built into ksh itself, provide a complete and flexible working environment.

Paul Placeway (paul@cis.ohio-state.edu) has built tcsh to run under A/UX. He fed the changes to Apple. I expect we will see tcsh as a release part of A/UX at some point. In the mean time, those people who have source licenses shouldn't have any problem applying tcsh modifications to your csh sources. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Mark A.
