[comp.soft-sys.andrew] ATK on NeXT?

dd26+@ANDREW.CMU.EDU ("Douglas F. DeJulio") (02/12/91)

Has anyone gotten ATK to work with the built-in dynamic linking code
that comes with mach on the NeXT machines?  I'll worry about the
NeXTStep interaction manager later, for now I'm wondering if anyone
has gotten the X11 or wm versions up and running (even though you'd
have to display on another machine for now).

I'm also curious about the status of the theoretical MGR interaction
manager for ATK, or any other interaction manager actually.  I'd be
encouraged by a bit more window system independance.

I've run Sun 3 binaries directly on the NeXT cube without any hassle --
this was back in the days when that just worked, but I believe there's
still a way to convert Sun binaries into something you can run. I
realize this isn't what you're looking for, but it was great fun to
bring up typescript and ez the day we got our first cube. (Yes, we had
to have the display on another machine.)
