It's been working on Pyramid's for quite some time. In fact, Pyramid bundles Unipress into their system. (We get it direct from Unipress tho -- because we like to be running the latest bugs. ;-) The Pyramid is more like a 68000 than a Vax, I've found: can't do *NULL, can't do *(long *)1, and the byte-order is the same. (Same as what, you ask? :-) The only real requirement is that (a) your code be linted; and (b) you don't play games with varargs, you do it right. -- Rich $alz "Hi, mom!"
