It wasn't as easy asn the WWB installation manual made it out to be. The manual makes a number of refferences to loading WWB under Berkeley UNIX, most all of which are wrong. Apon calling the folks at AT&T they stated that all the refferences (There were many) were actually misprints, and if we weren't running suported System V they didn't want to talk to us (At which point I told them we wouln't pay unless we could load the tape). Fortunatly the story has a happy ending since we managed to get almost everything up and running. If anyone is trying to bring up WWB I'd be happy to share what was done here to make it work (it's not very difficult). Now, for the one thing that doesn't work. The routing "org" (for analyzing the orginization of a paper) looks hoplesly wired in to using the "mm" macros. Has anyone out there modified or rewritten the lex file to enable "org" to use analyze other macro packages. --Larry APRA: bierma@nprdc.arpa UUCP: {decvax,ucbvax,ihnp4}!sdcsvax!sdcsla!nprdc!bierma PSTN: (619) 225-2161
