There is a rename(2) in A/UX 1.1 I don't know about A/UX 2.0 because, despite us supposedly being a beta test site for 2.0, we have yet to receive it from the local Apple technical rep Steve Feibus. aem -- a.e.mossberg / aem@mthvax.cs.miami.edu / aem@umiami.BITNET / Pahayokee Bioregion Man is here for the sake of other men. - Albert Einstein

There is a rename(2) in A/UX 1.1 It is also true for A/UX 2.0. We have found it often easier to port things to A/UX 1.1.1 by claiming it to be a BSD system and then fixing small irritations. The thing that gives most problems is having to use SysV terminal handling. PS.
