Thanks Andrej

Yes,my guess is that I've messed up the script, because it seems that
the
AnyJ process isn't actually starting.

If I don't get too bogged down in a messy C++ program this weekend (or
decide
I need a break by playing around in Alice), I'll take another peek. But
it's
not looking good (for C++, that is...)

Your experience with the Solaris J builder under Linux looks
interesting,
exciting, inspiring, even, but do you have any idea as to why it is so
memory
hungry?  I recon I could run 4 VisualWorks processes on the same memory!
And
Smalltalk isn't exactly renowned for being either fast or cheap on
memory.
Still, if it's "simply" a matter of tuning it for Linux, the future
looks good.

Turning C into an object oriented language is like trying to make a dog
into
an octopus.............. by nailing extra legs on it.
