They live in w3c-libwww-5.1m/LineMode/src/www , and w3c-libwww-5.1m/ComLine/src/w3c I think, but I am not at the machine right now. They are shellscripts. The binaries of the same name are only produced by gmake install which requires these scripts to work correctly. Incidentally the makefile will not work with Sun's make, and will only work the gnu make on my system. Furthermore, -nocache does not work for www, and I can find nothing to tell me how to disable caching. It continues to complain about others using the cache. > makefiles as described in > > http://www.w3.org/INSTALL.html > > Have you any problems compiling the libwww?
