The W3 code is distributed with machine-specific files for certain platforms.

Binaries, where they exists, are in subdirectories of the /pub/www/bin distribution directory.
Machine-specific Makefiles and other sources are in subdirectories of the Implementation (src) directory for a product.

The subdirectory names are as follows. Please consider all trademarks to be acknowledged as such.

sun4: The sun4 (RISC) series of worksations.
vax_ultrix: VAX machines running ultix for which gcc exists.
vax_ultrix_cc: VAX machines tunning ultrix, using the native cc compiler.
vms: The VMS operating system for DEC's VAX range.
unix: Generic unix source: if your machine is not listed, check these Makefiles for necessary changes fro yoru system then run them. If you need to make changes please mail back the new file to www-bug@info.cern.ch for inclusions in future releases.
