XDOS

[Mr. Barry W. Webb]

I just read a short blurb on XDOS in the latest UNIX REVIEW.  It comes from
Hunter Systems, Mountain View, CA  (415)965-2400.  I have no experience with
it but the blurb says the executable binaries for the Intel 8086 are compiled
by the XDOS compiler into non-8086 executable binaries for the target system.
This compilation is performed only once on a PC program, then is installed on
the target system, and run as if it were a UNIX program.  Hunter Systems' 
offering is licensed to computer OEMs on a royalty basis, and has a suggested
end-user price ranging from $425 to $2000.
