In regard to porting to the MASSCOMP RTU 4.0. The main area of problems is in the standard I/O. In particular _IOB structure. The fields are in different orders, have different sizes, and some fields, _bufsiz, are absent. I don't know of a good way to get around this. Possibly a pre-processor tool which will extract the local stdio.h and setup the configuration flags to enable _BUFSIZ or VPRINTF code -- John Clark jclark@ucsd.edu pa1412@iugrad2.ucsd.edu ucsd!scubed!irt!clark
