Amancio and I would like to announce that interviews 3.1 binaries and
patches for 386BSD are available on agate.berkeley.edu (128.32.136.1)
in pub/386BSD/0.1-ports/x-apps/InterViews.  There are three files:

iv3.1-bin.tar.Z*     complete 386BSD binaries for interviews 3.1
idraw3.1.tar.Z       binaries and documentation for the graphics editor
iv3.1-386bsd-gcc-2.3.3.patches  the source patches


The split archive iv3.1-bin.tar.Z* is the complete 386BSD binaries
and documentation for interviews 3.1.  To install iv3.1-bin.tar.Z,
either unpack it in /usr/contrib or make a symbolic link so that it
appears to be there:

    cd /usr/contrib
    cat iv3.1-bin.tar.Z* |tar xzf -

idraw3.1.tar.Z is the binaries and documentation for the interviews
3.1 graphics editor (idraw) alone. You can install the idraw
executable anywhere and you don't need any other data or library files
to run it.  You can simply unpack and run it.

idraw3.1.tar.Z contains:
  idraw - a 386BSD executable
  idraw.n - the troff man page source
  idraw.0 - the ascii, formatted man page
  car.idraw - a sports car
  using.idraw.ps - a users guide
  .Xdefaults - example X resources that customize the menus

All these executables require a math coprocessor (387) or a 486DX
because they are linked with libfpu rather than the 386BSD 0.1 libm.a.

Patches to the interviews 3.1 sources that were used to create these
executable are available by anon ftp from ref.tfs.com
(140.145.254.251) in ~rich/iv3.1-386bsd-gcc-2.3.3.patches.

The interviews 3.1 distribution itself is available from
interviews.stanford.edu (36.22.0.175) in /pub/3.1.tar.Z.
