Message-ID: Date: 8 Mar 91 19:33:25 GMT Sender: news@doc.ic.ac.uk Distribution: comp Organization: Imperial College Mafia, Computing Division. Lines: 30 Browsing through manual pages, binaries and other assorted locations the other day, I found we have a program installed in /etc called msmod. There is no manual page but on startup it says: $Header: msmod.c,v 64.1 89/04/28 17:00:02 marcs Exp $ User interface is likely to change. This version is preliminary. Comments and suggestions are encouraged. It allows the superuser to activate or deactivate measurements of all sorts of cute things, it seems, by using a device /dev/meas_drivr... Anybody know anything about this program? What it really does? How it displays its results? Or, is it even safe/useful to use? (hpux7.0, hp9000s300) This is what happens if you spend boring afternoons poring over hpux, instead of working... Nick. -- njw@doc.ic.ac.uk Dept of Computing, Imperial College, London SW7 2B7.
