I keep seing all these requests for machine readable copies of XINU. I
have it and I got it on a tape from Prentice-Hall. As far as I recall, they
did require proff of some sort of UNIX source license since there is a piece
of UNIX code in there somewhere. I believe it is ``printf". However, there
are public domain replacements available for that one so that's a solvable
problem.
I received two tapes, one from Prentice-Hall and one from Doug Comer (the
author of the code) himself. The one from Comer included versions for 68K
and Intel chips in additioon to the old LSI-11.
Anybody know where Comer is these days? Last I knew he was at Purdue. Check
with him regarding copyright. Or maybe Prentice-Hall holds the copyright.
The easiest thing to do would be to either call up your local P-H guy and
talk with him or talk to Doug Comer himself. Try Purdue. If he would give
permission, I wouldn't mind sending copies of what I received from him to
interested parties.
