no, sorry, I don't. I was merely referring you to the web site on the
assumption that there may be linux-ized code there. The APU code has
been linuxized and that code is to be found there.

I've not tried that code, and I'm still on RH72, so I probably can't
give details. However, if you post (to, e.g., RH mailing list) some
terse examples (5-10 lines) of code that gives errors, perhaps someone
can offer some useful advice.

"APUE" is his book "Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment", an
EXCELLENT book, though now getting kinda out of date. Nevertheless, it
gives excellent discussions of many/all aspects of Unix programming, so
that even if some of the programming examples are growing out of date
as Unix changes, it is still a great book.

               But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: 
                         While we were still sinners, 
                              Christ died for us.
