Simple Install but Problems - IRIX and atis + pap
#4087

I am trying to recompile CAP on our new SGI's running Irix 4.0.5F.  Currently
we are running from our older Sun and had no problems configuring under BSD.
Alas, Irix is SYSV and I am running into problems.  We are only using the CAP
system to allow printing to a LaserWriter via a Kinetics FP4 to localtalk.

On the SGI, I was able to make the entire system (using the -cckr flag to
avoid warnings). I am using CAP 6.0 pl 126. 

Now the problems.  If I run 'atis -D 3' as root, the from another shell
execute 'atistest' I get the following

# ./atis -D 3
abInit: [ddp:  55.81, 2] starting

I believe the problem lies in the ECHO error, but I am not sure what it is 
trying to do (thus my plea to the net gods :-)

Anyone have any Ideas?

On an second point, has anyone any suggestions or hints on configuring pap*
for use with the Irix 'lp'.  I have not looked into this myself yet as we have
had everything running via BSD lpr.  (but perhaps to go through the Transcript
package and lp ... I hope :-}
