GRASS and Sun operating sys

[Malcolm Williamson]

Steve,
the Sun binaries were compiled under SunOS 4.1.3. As far as GRASS under Solaris
2.3 goes, there are others on the net who could probably give you complete 
details. My understanding is that the "quirks" are limited, but one of them has
to do with the speed of v.digit, and thus could be fairly major. We're going to
find out ourselves in a few weeks, as we switch from 4.1.3 to Solaris 2.3.
And they call this progress!!
