Lines: 34 ** About the portability of Writers Workbench (WWB). I have ported it to 4.1, 4.2, Wollongong V7 UNIX, and a unknown port to the IBM/PC. The only problem is in "prose.c", where the help strings (information strings) are in giant strings (" .... "). For smaller systems these strings need to be broken into arrays of strings. I work with a company that supports WWB on non-System V systems. AT&T only supports System V. (they like to refuse to even admit 4.2 exists :-)). I am sure that Bill King would be happy to answer questions recieved by mail. His system is not on the net. Bill and I wrote an article on WWB in October UNIX World. Bill's net address is: ucbvax!ucdavis!billk When he gets home, I will ask if it is ok to post his phone number. Write me if you are interested. Besides WWB we are supporting other CAI software, including C/PILOT. -- scc!steiny Don Steiny - Personetics @ (408) 425-0382 109 Torrey Pine Terr.
