Subject: Pine 3.90 and Linux

If I understand correctly, some 3rd-party person ported Pine 3.89 to 
Linux when it was release.  I am curious as to if 3.90 will work with 
Linux right out of the box or if use Linux people will have to wait for 
somebody to port it?

We don't use Linux extensively, but I have compiled and briefly tested our
working sources of about the middle of last week on Linux 1.1.42...

I use pine 3.89 on a linux machine at home with no special port.  I have
used the same source and re-built for SunOS 4.1.3, HP-UX 8.0 and linux 
kernel 99.14 without any problems.  The linux distribution I use is 
debian and it came with elm.

Hope this helps.

The file doc/pine-ports in the Pine 3.89 distribution contains the text:
: lnx  ---  Linux 0.99.11
:   This is based on an original port of Pine 3.05 by Birko Bergt 
:   <[email-masked]>.  This port has only been lightly
:   tested.

So, when Pine 3.90 comes out, try:
   build lnx
