Hallo,

i 've some questions about the internal of the norton
utilities for interactive *ix.

- norton utilities (nu) need the STREAMS facilities.
  But who knows exactly for what..?
- whow does the nu UnErase function work ? I've heard the 
  unlink() is replaced. Is that right..?
- are there any bugs known like access to not owned deleted files ?
- it's true that only the different kinds of filesystems make the
  porting so difficult

- when will the SCO, SUN and HP -Versions available ?

More details are welcome.


thx, Volker.
