I am in the process of setting up my first unix system and it is a 386 running
SCO sys V. I know that there is bound to be tons of free software out there
that will be very usefull for me. I have several questions;
1) Is there anything neat out there that is just considered a must have?
2) I need an editor! I am not sure that I need all the power of EMACS but I
need something. Whats a good choice? userfreindly would be nice. I am
accustomed to using EVE on out vax.vms system.
3) How difficult is it to get X11r4 running on a 386 running SCO sys V?
4) What are the good FTP sites for unix sources?
I know these may seem like simple questions but I am new to unix. I am a
CP6/VMS user and until now my unix exposure has been purely coincidental and
unix is perhaps the most non-trivial operating system I have ever seen. I love
it.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Direct email replies will be even more
appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
