HINTS FOR PORTING FUNNELWEB TO A NEXT MACHINE
=============================================
John Dawson (avsoft!john@cs.utexas.edu) has installed FunnelWeb
on a NeXT machine and has got it to pass the regression tests.
He writes:

   "I had to play with the machin.{h,m} and environ.h files to get
   FunnelWeb to compile correctly.  The problem area was in machin.h
   where you put all those prototypes for the Sun.  They didn't jive
   well with my system.  However, every other default for the Sun was
   ok.  (A NeXT only needs to be aligned on 2^1-byte boundaries, and
   I think 2^0-byte boundaries might even work, but aligning things on
   2^2-byte boundaries doesn't hurt much.)."

The modified header files have been placed in "fw_p_next_patch.mes".
