For the time being, I run imake on another machine and edit the Makefile as appropriate for RTU. If I do get around to porting imake, I'll post a message here and make the port available. In the meantime, if anyone beats me too it, please let me know. On a related matter, does anyone know what release of X is included in SP-X11? It's obviously not a full X11R4 release, due to several missing pieces (imake, libXext.a, several header files) and due to some older clients (e.g. xpr). However, my understanding was that xdm, which is included, only came out in X11R4. I get the impression that SP-X11 is a bizarre hybrid of some R4 code with mostly older code. You'd think that at the prices Concurrent is charging for their software, they'd at least make an attempt to keep up with the times, instead of letting their customers go scrounging around for important programs that they never bothered to port themselves. Ditto for their brain-dead NFS implementation. (Disenchanted with Concurrent? Who? Me? Absolutely!) -- Gilles Detillieux <Gilles@scrc.UManitoba.CA> Spinal Cord Research Centre or <grdetil@gilles.scrc.UManitoba.CA> Dept. of Physiology, U. of Manitoba Phone: (204)788-6766 Winnipeg, MB R3E 0W3 (Canada) Fax: (204)786-0932
