Hard- and software needed to run the program:
Computer type and processor:
UNIX - compiled on Sun SPARCs and DEC Alphas
Graphic device:
8bit color graphics (exactly 8 bit!)
RAM:
the more the better (less than 16MB causes too muc
Harddisk space:
source around 700k, examples etc around 200k, exec
Other harware needed:
(standard UNIX)
Operating system and shell:
SPARCs: SunOS 4.1.3 tested / DEC Alphas: DEC OSF-1 tested
Other software needed:
95% of the source written in Modula-3 (system freely available in source from gatekeeper.dec.com)
Remarks:
Since we can"t expect jurors to install the complete Modula-3 systemjust to run our program, we"ll supply binaries for SunOS and DEC OSF-1,which should cover a large percentage of UNIX systems used.
