Hello out there,

I am currently developing software on two platforms:

1. Sparc10 running SunOs 4.1.3 with INMOS-Toolset
2. Linux1.1.10 with /dev/link and appropriate iserver

The transputer-clusters which I access consist
of Parsytec-boards, which have a different reset-
and error-handling than "normal" boards. The old
INMOS-Toolset (under MSDOS) provided an ispy, which
is missing under this version. I also have problems
resetting the whole cluster because of the Parsytec
reset-handling (I think, there is no global reset-line,
but every node has to reet his neighbors).
So my question is:
Are there any Routines like ispy, iskip, iserver
which are publicly available in source, and fit
my architectures?
Any hints are greatly appreciated, thanks in advance,

  Michael.
