PORTING FUNNELWEB TO HP COMPUTERS
=================================
* On an HP 9000/s300 running HP-UX 8.0, some users got FunnelWeb to
compile, but found that they were running up against buffer size
limitations. The problem is the definition of FILENAME_MAX in
machin.h. When I wrote FunnelWeb, I assumed that FILENAME_MAX was the
maximum length of an entire file specification including the path.
However, on many machines, it is defined the be the maximum length of
a filename without the path. The problem can be fixed by forcing the
definition

   #define FILENAME_MAX 300

in machin.h

This is the only known problem encountered by those who have performed
HP ports.
