Can someone direct me to a source for Pico 1.5 precompiled for a SUnOS,
or point me to source files and how this Unix neophyte could compile it
locally? Thanx - David

ftp.cac.washington.edu
directory: mail
file: pico-bin.sun

If you want the man pages, get pine3.05.tar.Z unstead.  Compiling for a
Sun is very easy:

uncompress pine3.05.tar
tar xf pine3.05.tar
build sun

The tar command extracts all of the subdirectories you need; when you
compile the progam, the executable will be in the /bin subdirectory.  The
man pages will be in /doc or /man or something like that.  (I've moved all
this stuff around, so I don't know what the original directories were called.)
Even a neophyte can do it; I've been using Unix less than a year and I got
pine and compiled it about six months ago.

Give it a try,
