Help!

I have a problem, or at least an insurmountable opportunity.

I trying to make magic #4 run on a Apollo series 4000. I am not
familiar with neither Apollo nor magic. I have magic from a
distribution tape from University of Washington. This distribution includes
some changes to magic that should enable me to run magic on the Apollo
without a terminal hooked to the system for command input.

Magic compiles without any big problems and when I run it it prints
something like:

Magic last updated .... [dates]

process (scmos)
This kind of Apollo is unknown.

and then dies. The last line should perhaps give a clue.

As I don't particularly like to reinvent the wheel I would appreciate
any help!

If anyone has magic running on a Apollo 4000 please tell me what I do
wrong.

	/Thank you for your time, Per Hammarlund


ps. Perhaps only a environment variable needs a correct value. Or one
can add a case entry to the switch statement in file `grApollo1.c',
trouble is, I don't know what to add.
