Porting gorets

Hey netters,

Has anyone ported their goret to AIX?  I was trying to modify the BSD
code on my goret, but by the time I was done my goret died.  Man, it
was a bloody mess.  I'll have to remember to do a back up next time.

aTdHvAaNnKcSe,

Brian

AIX?  The International Goretic Academy declared AIX unsafe for gorets in
December of 1991.  If you are really interested in voiyb optimization, I
would suggest porting your goret to DXIn, which is much safer and quite easy
to do.  I haven't ported MY goret over, but I have a perverse pleasure for
choppy voiyb sequences.  A pal of mine did, though... I think that detailed
instructions can be ftp'd from the abovementioned Int'l Goretic Acad, at
ftp.goret.iga.org.  Look in /pub/info/DXIn.

Oh, and when you make that backup, make sure not to expose the compressed
copy to any radiation from spurple amplifiers... that can wipe out a backup
goret faster than a young goret eats leticular infundibula.

Let us know how it goes... I haven't heard many good goret-porting stories
lately.

I had no problem porting my own goret from Messy Dos to Macintrash.
Did you try to insert the tail in the ear ? Just wondering.
Can you send part of your code ?

Yougz.

Always mount a scratch goret.

The AIX 3.2 device drivers don't handshake with gorets correctly. You
need to smack your goret with a mallard spoon, or maybe a decent
cloaca spindle, to fix the problem.

Tesser is perhaps overly cautious here:  While it is certainly true that
compressed gorets (and indeed uncompressed ones) can be damaged by radiation
from spurple amplifiers, this can be avoided by proper treatment of the
spurple amplifiers.  To sum up: never sleep around spurple.  Sleep and
spurple simply do not mix, expecially not if either the sleep or the
spurple have been amplified.

It is in fact my rather painful experiences involving mixing sleep and spurple
that explain why I have only a partial goret.

Given that this is the right forum, does anyone out there have any experience
fixing a goret that has been injured from sleep/spurple interactions?

On a slightly related topic, does anyone have any experience porting a goret to
either F or SRL-E?
