Hello, world.

I am trying to put up CRISP v.1.9 on a BSD 4.3 system (and if that works, I
may try to put it up on VMS also (we are currently running 4.7, but will
probably upgrade to 5.x soon)).  My current source of confusion involves the
machine dependencies.  I have unpacked the sources from comp.sources.misc
and have looked at CRISP.Inst, the installation script.  As far as I can
tell, this script would identify my (well, my university's) machine as a
Sun3, when it is really a VAX.  It would set s-machine to s-bsd, but it
would set DESCR to "SunOS 3.x" and m-machine.h to m-sun3os3.h.  It seems
implausible to me that simply typing 

%make
%sh CRISP.Inst

would do the job.  What ought I to do.

(As is probably obvious, I am not the sysadmin.  I am merely a user who
would like to get another editor up, preferably one that would run on both
the unix system and vms.)

If anyone knows what to do or has a suitable .h file to substitute for the
sun file, I would be very grateful.

Thank you in advance.
