This is the 2nd msg. I've posted to this conference. Message 1 solicited replies from JPL, NASA, STANFORD, BERKELEY & FINLAND...amazing So I've looked into the 'GNU' software at sequent.kent.edu & prep.ai.mit.edu and transferred the GNUCHESS & GCC binaries. ARE THERE OTHER SUPPORTING /lib files for these programs? WILL THEY PORT DIRECTLY TO ESIX (no install or configuration?). What are all the related 'xxx.Z' utilities for (diff.Z, grep.Z). I'd appreciated conferencing with ESIX users about which 'GNU' programs are worth migrating to ESIX, what directories are targeted, & other related topics? Thanks Again....
