Message-ID: <1244@hound.UUCP> Date: Fri, 5-Jul-85 16:27:20 EDT Article-I.D.: hound.1244 Posted: Fri Jul 5 16:27:20 1985 Date-Received: Sat, 6-Jul-85 10:49:16 EDT Reply-To: pearse@hound.UUCP (S.PEARSE) Organization: AT&T Bell Labs, Holmdel NJ Lines: 17 Hi, I am trying to compile a program posted to the net a while back called "insult", using kafka as pre-processor. I think insult is a BSD-based program. It uses reference to random and srandom, producing symbol referencing errors in the link stage of the compile. Does anyone know what I should use in place of random and srandom? And, what I would *really* like, does anyone have a compilation of the most-often-used BSD to UNIX conversion tricks?? I know of a few basic ones, like the strchr to strrchr fixes. It seems that 90% of BSD programs can be converted to SYSV with just #include changes and a few other things. Please send mail to me or post BSD-UNIX summary to the net. Thanks! -- Steve Pearse ihnp4!hound!pearse
