Compiled and packaged `uname'

Title: Compiled and packaged `uname'
Post by: verdraith on October 19, 2015, 09:57:14 PM
A few years ago, I posted the source code for a port of `uname' for NeXT.  As I was toying with building packages, I thought I would build a package with a quad-fat binary and make it available along with the source code.

The package can be downloaded at:
http://lisp.gotgeeks.com/Software/Packages/uname-1.0.NIHS.bs.tar.gz

I have tested it with NS3.3 m68k (thanks, Previous), NS3.3 Intel, and OS 4.2 Intel.

Thanks to Previous, I found I could back-port it to NS2.x too -- if anyone is interested, I can provide binaries :)

p.s. there's a few other 'missing' BSD utilities in that directory -- cut, and printf -- as well as a port of the md5sum utility.

Update:  I have now added the `env' utility - http://lisp.gotgeeks.com/Software/Packages/env-1.0.NIHS.bs.tar.gz

Thanks for making these! Once I get my Pyro installed I'll give them a try on my Cube.

So seems I totally forgot about this post.

I've changed over to NoIP, so all these URLs are now dead :(

I would love to have NS2.x binaries. :)

Thank you for looking for'em!

Perhaps put them into the NeXTfiles archive? Maybe a new directory under Software/NEXTSTEP/ called UNIX?

Cheers!

I had a disk failure earlier in the year, and not yet had chance to rebuild the ESXi system yet, will be happening eventually.

Source code for these were put on GitHub a while back, I just forgot to update this thread :(

I found a typo in the uname source code.  It's been dealt with.  Don't ask about the corpse.

New release at https://github.com/Asmodai/NeXT-UnixKit/releases

--edit--
I'm thinking about unifying cut, dirname, env, md5sum, printf, and uname into one single package to save effort.
