- USL SC has superior performance compared to the above libraries.

- No, nothing in USL SC is going to be standard, except if they sell like
- hell and is promoted to informal industry standard. Not very likely...

- I have no address, but send a mail to:
- tja@usl.com
- Price: I think I shouldn't say, since it may vary... ???
-
- >Is it available in source form ?
-
- Yes, and if you have a close look you can find some rather kinky code.
- Since performance is their main goal, they have done some things in a
- rather unorthodox way... ;-)

- >Is it available for Sun/Solaris 2.0 ?
-
- I dunno at the moment, but I think you have to wait a bit longer for
- that release.
