In ideal world we should test on all supported systems. > Practically, sockaddr_un is pretty standard Unix things, > so once we get if working on Linux (that is there is > no crude errors) what remains is Windows.

BTW, win10 recently supports AF_UNIX natively. Still on mingw I guess it translates the code somehow. P.S, on mingw we don't have graphics, so the only purpose of sman is to provide line editing (clef)? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "FriCAS - computer algebra system" group.
