People,

I found a neat function in publib that should do what I want, but adding either

#imclude <publib.h>  // as per man publib

OR

#include "/usr/local/include/publib.h"

fails.  Yes, I am adding "-lpub" to the enc of gcc.  Still bombs.  Anybody know
why?  Prev'ly when I've used the publib functions, I've had to move/copy a slew
of them into my private build.  Be nice if this just-worked!

thanks for any insights,

gary
