I've had little success. Yes, this is a tough one. We've applied Todd's patch to typescript and it appears to work fine on rt_r{3,4}, rs_aix31, sun3_35, and ps_aix12 platforms. Nobody has tested it on the HP boxes. We don't have a working HP at the moment.

I'm guessing this because a header file called > 'sys/bsdtty.h' is included when compiling on hpux. I think that you may be right about that. That file is still include in the new version of tscript.c but you may find that you need to remove that inclusion.

We haven't yet put together a test patch10 but when we do we'll let you know where it lives so that you can test it for us. Thanks for the offer.
