Welcome to my mini NextStep 3.3 archive. A few month ago I bought a used NextStation. All binaries here are compiled on this machine running NextStep 3.3. In addition I also provide binaries for Intel based machines running NextStep 3.3 and HPPA running NextStep 3.2. To install the binaries create /usr/local. After you have downloaded an archive move it to /usr/local and uncompress it using the following command:
gzip -dc <filename.tar.gz> | tar xvf -
In some cases the command above creates an single directory which includes the bin, etc, man, lib sub directories. In this case move the content from the newly created directory to /usr/local. Also check always the "documentation" because some rather large distributions require an extra directory to work.
Currently I do not provide any sources due to limited disk space and the fact that most of the problems where fixed in the "quick & dirty" way without using any #ifdefs in the sources. But if you are really desperate drop me a note and I will send you the modified source trees. I haven't had the time to run excessive tests using the software provided below. Please let me know if you encounter any problems (including a detailed description). Currently not all software I'm running is available from my site. If you find a "cross" without a link, please let me know and I will make the software available for download.
I've also assembled a little document (NextStep 3.3-Intel on Virtual PC 4.2 Installation) how nextstep 3.3 can be installed under Virtual PC 4.2.

The libXm is slightly modified and includes now "getcwd()", otherwise the gnu configure scripts fail if the Motif libraries are needed by an application (the linker does not find getcwd). uil is not included in this binary distribution (no time to fix missing getopt functions). | |||
