- Hi, Fred,
-
- Here are my fixes for running your mknlist, nsort, and call under NeXTStep.
- The primary problem is that NeXTStep has a funky version of mmap() in that
- you have to use the Mach vm_allocate() routine to allocate memory before
- call mmap(). Also, there is no munmap(), so I just use the Mach
- vm_deallocate(). This all works well except in nsort where I had to add
- an #ifdef section to write the sorted file back out to disk. I tested my
- changes on both an M68xxx NeXT and an Intel box running NeXTStep. It works
- under both NeXTStep 3.0 and 3.2. I expect it will work under any version
- of NeXT.
-
- I also wanted to give you fat binaries of the executables that would run
- under both M68K's and Intel machines, but none of the NeXT's I currently
- have have the multiple architecture support loaded. So, the best I can do
- at this point is generate two sets of executables.
-
- So, feel free to use, or not to use, this stuff as you see fit. If you
- would like to make some changes, let me know and I'll give it a shot.
