Hi,

I recently downloaded a copy of the zephyr source code and was
attempting to install it on a HP-UX series 300 machine.  Unfortunately,
the make files did not work in our environment.  The makeconfig file 
contained such constructs as "-for", "-rm", "mkdir ${DESTDIR}/$$i" (most 
specifically $$i) which do not work in any our our standard shells (sh, ksh, 
csh).  After creating a script to do similar work, I created the zephyr 
environment.  Immediately after, I invoked 'make world' in order to create 
zephyr.  Again, this did not work.  Do I have an old version of source or 
are these tools useless on my machine.  The installation documentation
is dated "20 November, 1989".

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks,
