i quote the AT&T software announcement for C++ :

	"Given a running version of the C++ translator on a system
	 mentioned above, it can be ported to a different type of
	 system, if the target system has a C compiler that supports
	 variable names of arbitrary length, and structure assignment."

The systems "mentioned above" are AT&T Sys V,Release 2.0 on VAX and 3Bx
computers.  i don't know what system calls are used by the C++ translator
itself, so i don't know what mods might be needed for it to run under
BSD systems or v7-like systems (Alcyon C).

The porting procedure is related in the "Release Notes", part of the
C++ distribution.

Educational (source) licensing is $250 per *request*, no limit on # of
CPUs.  Commercial (source) licensing is $2000 for the 1st CPU, $1000
for each additional CPU.  Binary sublicensing is available for $2000
plus from $50 to $500 per copy sold.


Note that Oasys (Cambridge, MA) also sells C++.  Their phone # is
(617) 491-4180.  i don't know any particulars about their product,
since i am still waiting for their info to arrive in the mail.
