I just retrieved the sources to MicroEmacs 3.10 from SIMTEL and tried to
compile them on my 3b1 (System V). Everything works just fine until it gets
to the unix.c file and it quits because it cannot find the include file
ndir.h.
Does anyone know what this file is? Can I get a copy of this file? Is there
a way to work around this file?
I also tried compiling MicroEmacs using the BSD selection in the estruct.h
file, but it just gives up in dispare when it reaches the tcap.c file.
Am I asking this question in the right group?

Yep, right questions. The unix.c file distributed with MicroEmacs 3.10 is based on a BSD system with almost enough adjustments to make it work on SysV, but not quite. You need to get dirent.h and friends (it should be archived somewhere on osu-cis) by Doug Gwyn. If you would like I can mail you a replacement for unix.c that supports the UnixPc (mouse, function keys, soft labels etc.). Note that MicroEmacs 3.11 Beta is out and the regular release is supposed to be next month. Support for the UnixPc, and at least two unrelated replacements for unix.c to support SysV have been sent to the author (Dan Lawrence). I have no idea whether he is likely to include any or even part of it in the release. Whatever the 3.11 release for MicroEmacs is, once it is released there will be a group of support files, and a binary, placed on osu-cis for the UnixPc specifically. Floyd -- Floyd L.
