Befoe the requests pile up too deeply, MG is written to be portable
across a large range of machines.  The sources for version 1a are
available on the comp.sources.unix archive at uunet.  They imply
support the following systems:

# distribution note: This distribution of mg 1a is 11 shar files:
#	mg_1.shar through mg_5.shar	system indepentend, termcap,
#					bsd, sysv, and osk files.
#	mg_amiga1.shar, mg_amiga2.shar	amiga specific files
#	mg_vms1.shar through mg_vms4.shar
#					vms and eunice specific files.

The contacts list at that time (Nov 1986) looked like:

Amiga Lattice C:	Mike Meyer: 
	mwm@berkeley.edu
	ucbvax!mwm

Amiga Manx C & VMS:	Mic Kaczmarczik: 
	ut-sally!ut-ngp!mic
	mic@ngp.utexas.edu
	CCEP001@UTADNX.BITNET

OSK & BSD:	Bob Larson: 
	blarson@usc-oberon.arpa
	sdcrdcf!usc-oberon!blarson

Now there is a version 2a available, but I didn't see it in
comp.sources.unix yet, and comp.sources.misc didn't turn up anything.
I think the new version covers more machines.
