    Hi Matthias,
    I've got a distribution!!!

Fine. Could you please also create an INSTALL-* file to describe
howto install your binary under HP-UX and which other things
must be known and added to the system. There are several at
ftp://sgi.com/sgi/fax/binary/INSTALL-* from which you could
start. HTML is perhaps the right form today.
    
    Its posted at http://www.trump.net.au/~rjc/hylafax/

Please put both files to ftp://ftp.sisis.de/pub/incoming/
and send me the MD5 checksums by email. I'll organize the
transport to the public ftp-servers and send you the
resulting URLs. After that you can announce your work in
the mailing list together with the URLs and the MD5 checksums.
    
    I built this with gcc-2.8.0.
    
    This required a number of patches, including finding a compiler
    bug(specific to HP-UX)
    
    The gcc-2.8.0 patch might need wider distribution, as it updates the
    hylafax source to work with the C++ standard for handling class method
    pointers as well as altering the prototypes of a few main() routines from
    void main() to int main().  Nothing serious but compatibility with older
    compilers needs to be checked(gcc-2.7.2 works ok)

Please provide me with that patch directly; I'll check it on my
system with gcc-2.7.2 and post it to the beta-testers
list. I maintain a small list (mailing-list) of folks
working active on HylaFAX. Perhaps you may want also to subscribe.
If so send e-mail to majordomo@sisis.de with a body of
subscribe hylafax-testers

Thanks for your work.

    PS The compiler bug was a real pain...
