Canada Lines: 20 Xref: utgpu comp.unix.questions:2264 comp.sys.ibm.pc:3824 . I was inundated with replies to my request for news software for either Microport SysV or MS Xenix. All but one were for Microport. Thanks very much to all those who took the time to respond. One interesting thing is the range of comment on the difficulty of making news 2.11 work on microport. Some said it would run without modification while at the other extreme it was claimed to take months to get it going. There were a variety of comments in between. Since someone is mailing me floppies with the source I guess I will be finding out for myself. Once again thanks for the help everyone. john chapman *** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE *** -- {watmath,seismo,uw-beaver}!ubc-vision!fornax!sfulccr!chapman or ...!ubc-vision!sfucmpt!chapman
