J.3.11 Release MD-1.2

Newly released option until November 1989

$\bullet$ Introduction of the HOSTTYPE environment variable in the NEMORC file. This meant that new environment variables such as NEMOBIN, NEMOLIB and NEMOOBJ are derived from NEMO and HOSTTYPE. See the NEMORC file. It also meant that basically all Makefile's had to be updated.

$\bullet$ Libraries are a bit screwed up now, and best is to include both libT.a and libJ.a in the minimum list of libraries. Makefiles are being updated for this. One can also use libNEMO.a, and use utilities such as mklib, addlib and mkbin.

$\bullet$ bodytrans enhanced, has a proper database of expressions, which is dynamically updated when bodytrans(3) is used. The file $NEMOOBJ/bodytrans/BTNAMES contains a list of extra expressions currently understood. Make sure those directories are write permissible by the world.

$\bullet$ Loadobj is now also functional for Sparc (sun4) and COFF (System V UNIX). The SPARC version requires loading with -Dsun4 -Bstatic since often required symbols, such as integer multiplication, are in shared libraries. This unfortunately makes those binaries larger than they could be.
