FoxPro is the later version of FoxBase, which was a Xenix clone of the Ashton-Tate dBase III software. The a.out binaries he's talking about are for one of the Xenix platforms that FoxPro ran on. The only ones I'm aware of that it ran on that were a.out were SCO Xenix 2.1.[23], 3.x, and Altos Xenix (386 platforms: Altos 686 and 886). He might also mean the Intel 320's running Intel Xenix, but I'm pretty sure that FoxBase was the only thing that ran on those platforms. -- Terry _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
