I just built mush(1) for HPUX 8.0 on an HP 700.

  It didn't quite build correctly out of the mush.7.2.3.tar.Z tape I
got off of the net.  In particular, several files needed to

	#include <sys/termio.h> 

in order to compile correctly and there were a couple of places where
HPUX was closer to being BSD than SYSV for #ifdef purposes (these were
minor tweaks).  Also, mush(1) didn't compile with the current version
of GCC as installed on our system.  It isn't clear what the problem
was with GCC.

Overall, it built fairly easily despite the above problems.  Mush(1)
is frankly much better than the HP-supplied elm(1) mail user agent.

  However, mush(1) only works on the HP console or over a modem with
my DEC vt220 from home.  mush(1) will dump core "bus error" when run
from a stock xterm under HPUX with X11R4.

Has anyone seen any sort of xterm/mush problem before now ??
Clues on where to look and what to test would be helpful.

Thanks,

  Ran
