The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Yeah, IBM is thinking to use the open-source options instead. Not a bad
direction, methinks.
Still, there are some tools in PTL that probably - I don't know for sure
- probably are not available through the PERZL and other AIX
repositories - some ATK editors and the like - (ATK is Andrew Tool Kit,
some IBM-developed tools for a project they did, maybe long in the tooth).
emacs is available in PTL, but that is probably available through PERZL,
etc.
I think it doesn't hurt to download it and have it all. OTOH, it might
be confusing if one is starting out with open source, to have stuff like
emacs in different places in PASE.
You pays no money and you still makes your choice!
It would be nice to have a map of what is recommended to use instead of
individual utilities in PTL. Maybe it's already out there, I've not
tried to find it.
Cheers
