- Socket-1.1 runs on these platforms:
-
- - AT 386, ISC 3.0 (*)
- - CDC 4680, EP/IX 1.4.1. (*)
- - DECstation 3100, Ultrix 4.0
- - HP-UX 7.0, 8.0 (*)
- - IBM RS 6000, AIX 3.1.5
- - MicroVAX II, 4.3 BSD (*)
- - SGI Iris, Irix 3.3.1
- - Sequent, DYNIX v.3.0.7 (*)
- - Sun SPARCstation II, SunOS 4.1.2
- - System V Rel. 4 (*)
-
- The platforms marked with "(*)" require minor editing of the Makefile.
- Instructions are included near the beginning of the Makefile. Edit as
- necessary and type "make install". This builds the program and
- installs the executable as /usr/local/bin/socket and the manual page
- as /usr/local/man/man1/socket.1.
-
- Socket relies on some Berkeleyisms in signal, process, and IO
- handling, so porting it to (other) non-BSD-derived platforms may be
- difficult. I am interested in any changes you make to port the
- program to a new platform. Please send them back to me so I can merge
- them into a later release.
-
- The Makefile is not suitable for development since it doesn't include
- the dependencies. (I use the Shape Toolkit for development.)
- To correct this, include the file Dependencies into the Makefile.
