I would like to get notes using the same nfs mounted spool directory.
Notes outputs nested structures and reads them back in.  The sizeof
operator returns different lengths for some of the structures.  Is there
some way to make the sun3 and sun4 versions write and read the same nested
structures?  Is there a generally accepted and portable way of doing this
in general?

Please email replies to jeremy@jeremy.prime.com.

Thanks,
