Software Porting And Archive Centre Catalogue (Entire Archive Contents)
INTRODUCTION
The HP-UX Porting and Archive Centre at The University of Liverpool,
UK, is a joint initiative by the Department of Computer Science at the
University and Hewlett-Packard. The centre undertakes the porting of
public domain software to run under HP-UX systems and acts as a repo-
sitory for this software worldwide. All software archived at the cen-
tre has been successfully compiled and tested for the HP 700 series;
much of it will also run under the 300/400/800 series. The centre wel-
comes donations of public domain software ported elsewhere.
Organisation of the archive
The archive can be accessed using anonymous FTP on the Internet net-
work and is organised as a tree-structure of directories. Each direc-
tory contains its own README file which provides any necessary infor-
mation and a brief description of the directory contents. The follow-
ing subdirectories are visible from the top level:
hpux This holds the archived software and is
itself organised into a number of subdirec-
tories, most of which house a set of related
packages. The set of source files which con-
stitute a software package are stored in
compressed form as a single file with a file-
type of tar.Z. Each package includes a
README.LUCS file, provided by the centre when
the package was archived, which contains a
brief description of the package.
TroffDoc This directory holds up-to-date copies of all
documents relating to the porting and archive
centre, in troff format. (In order to facili-
tate the printing of these documents you will
need either AT&T troff or Gnu groff.)
TextDoc This directory holds plain text versions of
the documents held in TroffDoc.
Also housed within the top level directory are the following files:
ls-lR.Z Recursive directory listing of the hpux directory.
Conventions A guide to the conventions used at Liverpool for
compiling and archiving packages.
About this catalogue
This catalogue details the entire contents of the hpux directory on
the date shown. The organisation of the catalogue reflects the sub-
directory structure of the hpux directory; packages are listed
Introduction as of Wed 19 Aug 1992 Page 2 of Catalogue.all
Software Porting And Archive Centre Catalogue (Entire Archive Contents)
alphabetically within subdirectory. The filename under which a given
package is stored can be determined from the catalogue listing by
catenating the package name, the version number and, as all files are
stored in compressed form, the file type `tar.Z', i.e.
<package_name>-<version_number>.tar.Z
For example, the entry under `Sysadmin':
expect 3.225 10 Jul 1992 737 < DESCRIPTION >
has a filename of:
expect-3.225.tar.Z under the subdirectory `/hpux/Sysadmin'.
This catalogue is itself available from the archive; it is held in the
subdirectories TroffDoc (in troff format) and TextDoc and is generated
automatically each day using the README files associated with both the
software packages and the directories.
Documents available
All documentation relating to the porting and archive centre is avail-
able from the archive from both the TextDoc directory (containing
plain text documents) and the Troff directory. The latter holds docu-
ments in troff form; in order to facilitate the printing of these
documents you will need either AT&T troff or Gnu groff. The documen-
tation in TextDoc is suitable for users who do not have troff facili-
ties. The list below details the current contents of these direc-
tories; all documents are stored as compressed files and can be
uncompressed using the command `uncompress'. As far as possible, all
documents are generated automatically on a daily basis, ensuring that
any documents obtained from the archive reflect its current state. FTP
can be used to fetch any of these files.

This directory contains GNU software (with ports to HP-UX if neces-
sary) usually obtained from the American FTP sites export.lcs.mit.edu
and prep.ai.mit.edu. Packages of primary importance include gcc/g++
(for the Series 700 HP-UX machines), ghostscript (a GNU PostScript
interpreter and previewer) and groff (a GNU version of troff).

bulletin 06.92 24 Jul 1992 44 The June 1992 edition of the GNU Bul-
letin, originally posted to the Usenet
gnu.announce newsgroup. It deals with
what GNU Project are currently work-
ing on, what the present policies are
and what is available from them via
anonymous FTP or Post Office mail.
flex 2.307 18 Aug 1992 257 A fast lexical analyser generator--the
GNU version of lex. This is a tool for
generating scanners, which are pro-
grams which recognize lexical patterns
in text. The final output of flex is a
C program that is linked with a shared
library to produce an executable.
gcc 2.2 23 Jul 1992 6602 The GNU Project integrated ANSI C and
C++ compilers. This distribution con-
tains only the original source code
(initially configured for HP Series
700). If you do not have "full" HP C
compiler and have Series 700 machine,
then you should get "gcc-built"
instead, which has a ready-to-install
set of binaries. Note that you will
need to install the GNU g++ object
library in order to use the C++
compiler.

gcc-built2.2 21 Jul 1992 11485 The GNU Project integrated ANSI C and
C++ Compilers. This distribution
includes HP Series 700 binaries (built
with +O3 optimisation) of GNU C as well
as the complete source code. Thismeans
that the compiler can be installed with
just one command ("make install")
without even requiring a C compiler to
build it. Note that you will need to
install the GNU g++ object library in
order to use the C++ compiler.
ghostview1.3 16 Jul 1992 168 PostScript previewer for X that is a
front-end for the Ghostscript inter-
preter (gs). Supports zooming, various
orientations, different page sizes and
the ability to jump to any page in the
document. Requires gs 2.4 or later,
which is also available in this direc-
tory.
gnuplot 3.2 18 Jun 1992 900 A command-driven interactive function
plotting program. It supports both 2D
and 3D plots, and can display the
results on a variety of different
terminals and printers.
groffbin 1.04 31 Jul 1992 1989 The GNU document formatting system--the
public domain version of AT&T's troff.
This allows high quality documents,
such as the Archive Centre Catalogue,
to be produced from a source file of
groff/troff commands embedded in the
main text body. Various preprocessors
can be applied to handle tables (gtbl),
equations (geqn) and diagrams (gpic).
This package unpacks directly into
/usr/local/bin, /usr/local/man and
/usr/local/lib/groff, because only the
binaries, man pages and fonts are
included.
indent 1.2 25 Jun 1992 151 Indent changes the appearance of a C
program by inserting or deleting white
space, to make code easier to read.
It can also be used to convert from one
style of writing C to another.
ispell 2.0 7 Jul 1992 235 Interactive Spelling checker--steps
through a file, flagging words it
doesn't recognise and suggesting
possible alternatives.

"make" command, the GNU version under-
stands a large set of rules and
provides improved error messages.
tar 1.10 18 Jun 1992 229 GNU version of tar, a tape file
archiver. Although tar is supplied
with HP-UX, gtar has more options and
handles absolute paths as relative
paths, however it cannot cope correctly
with CDFs (context-dependent files).

second on an HP 9000/720--
when this is combined with clever dis-
tribution of processing power, the
