As the headline says on the SunFreeware site:
"Celebrating 14 Years as the #1 Site for Free Software Packages for Solaris."
I think I have known them almost since their beginning. Maybe about
the time that I switched from SunOS 4.1.1 to Solaris 2.5 or 2.6. On
32-bit Sparc of course.
But it would be nice to have some clarification about 32-bit vs 64-bit
processors. Maybe it is all done automagically. Except perhaps for
compilers that could be targeted to different word lengths.
