   I'm looking for a version of tn3270 that will build cleanly 
   on the DECstation 3100 under Ultrix 3.1.

   ucbarpa.berkeley.edu (v4.1.1) which compiles OK on sun/vax
   RT AOS 4.3 Release 2 with NFS defines on devvax.tn.cornell.edu.
   HP-UX version on columbia.edu in hp/tn3270.tar.Z.
   IRIS version on iris613.gsfc.nasa.gov.

well, a bit of snooping in my own private archives found this,
so add
   Decstation 3100 version on bimbo.tn.cornell.edu
to your private list.

Apologies to anyone who's seen this once already, though I doubt
much of anyone has a 3 month expire these days (sigh).  Thanks
Hurf!

There was some interest in this from all corners of the globe...

With help from a few people from the tn3270 list
(tn3270 at terminus.umd.edu)
I have it working.
The following was done:
../telnet/Source/tn3270.c
put #if ((!defined(mips))) around the putchar routine..
#if ((!define(NOT43)) ...
(thanks skapur at ccmail.sunysb.edu)

ctlr/api.h
added '|| (MIPSEL)' to the byte order check
(line 333)
[Probably should add ' || (MIPSEB) ' to the next check]

edited makefile to reflect a different install scheme and to put
../etc/map3270 in /etc
changed the 'thisdepend' rule so it worked and put 'mkdep' in this directory.
 (thanks jch at sonne.tn.cornell.edu) 

Used ../telnet/Makefile_ultrix instead of ../telnet/Makefile

I don't have the map file working so the enter key is read correctly -
use ^Z - 

Interestingly this works fine on a vax rlogged into from the Pmax
(termcap maybe?)


Will diff a std directory so you can use patch to do all the work and
post it soon. - 

Meanwhile on bimbo.tn.cornell.edu (128.84.253.208) for anon ftp in pub

-rw-r--r--  1 0        0          652612 Oct 26 09:55 mips.tn3270.tar.Z

Just unpacking, editing tn3270/makefile to reflect your own
installation preferences and typing 'make' or 'make install'
should build a working tn3270 on a Pmax. Read the README.CORNELL.LPS

Built mine under Ultrix3.1-UWS2.1...
