[M3devel] PA32_HPUX available

[Jay]

I have replaced these with:

 

 

http://modula3.elegosoft.com/cm3/uploaded-archives/cm3-min-PA32_HPUX-d5.7.1.tar.gz
http://modula3.elegosoft.com/cm3/uploaded-archives/cm3-min-PA32_HPUX-d5.7.1.tar.lzma

 


http://modula3.elegosoft.com/cm3/uploaded-archives/cm3-std-PA32_HPUX-d5.7.1.tar.gz
http://modula3.elegosoft.com/cm3/uploaded-archives/cm3-std-PA32_HPUX-d5.7.1.tar.lzma


These are "completely rebuilt", not just "repackaged".

 

and also made sure that all the non-NT386 platforms have .tar.gz and .tar.lzma, and no .tar.bz2.

 

 

Roughly/statistically speaking:

 

 

.lzma is "always" much smaller than .gz, doesn't take too much longer to decompress, takes much longer to compress.

.bz2 is "always" in between in size, and takes the longest to compress and decompress.

lzma is the least widely deployed, gzip is the most widely deployed, bzip2 is somewhere in between. lzma is written in C++, which may negatively impact one's ability to build it.
