+---------------------------------------------------------
+ 
+ 
+ I eagerly unpacked UW only to be unable to get the VAX
+ side working!  The ST side apparently works fine.  However,
+ after :
+ 	1) kermitting UW to the ST
+ 	2) uudecoding UW.uue
+ 	3) unarcing UW.arc
+ 	4) kermitting uw.vax and uwtool.vax back to the vax,
+ 	5) chmoding so it was executable,
+ 	6) executing and then
+ 		Core dump - illegal instruction...
+ 
+ okay can someone help by pointing out what i am doing wrong.
+ Failing that ... can some kind soul send me a uuencoded versions
+ (not arc-ed) of uw.vax and uwtool.vax.
+ 		thanks in advance,

rather than cluttering up the net with mailings that may or may not
work, i strongly recommend that you get in touch with ravi (the
original poster, his address is in the posting) and speak with him.
The vax versions that he sent me were specifically for my system
(VAX 11/750 under More BSD 4.2) There was no gaurentee that it would
work elsewhere, I'm sorry if i didn't make that clear in the posting.
I included it only in the vague hope that it MIGHT work on another
system.
