Porting Hugo v2.0


30 Nov 95 01:20:45 -500

Now that the source code for Hugo v2.0 is available, I am actively
looking for people who are interested in porting Hugo to new systems/
platforms. If you are one of them, or know someone who might be one
of them, read on.

The source code for Hugo is written in (almost) ANSI C. The re-coding
involved in porting should be minimal, particularly if the new compiler
allows anything more than strict ANSI adherence. Some additions will
have to be made to the top of the header files (HCHEADER.H and HEHEADER.H),
and the files HCQUICKC.C and HEQUICKC.C will need to be replaced with
ones containing appropriate functions for the system in question.

Anyone interested can pick up the source from ftp.gmd.de under
/if-archive/programming/hugo/source.

Questions, comments, criticisms, suggestions, bug reports, etc. can be
directed to me, Kent Tessman, at <as400477@orion.yorku.ca>.
