If those templates do not exist when you try to preview or display a new article, you'll get this warning :-) Please place your own templates in themes/yourtheme/modules/articles . The templates will get the extension .xt there.

Summary: How to get in touch with our Minix coordinator

Body: 

Much of C programming is influenced by the UNIX operating system and its derevatives. UNIX was the first operating system to be written in C; indeed it was the reason C was invented!

MINIX is a re-write of the UNIX operating system in C that does not contain any source code belonging to AT&T and therefore does not require a (very expensive) UNIX licence to run.

Don Forbes has agreed to act as co-ordinator for interest in MINIX within the C User Group. The next issue of C Vu will have a page dedicated to MINIX devotees.

If you run a MINIX system, are thinking of doing so or would just like to know more then Don can be contacted at:

Don Forbes, 35 Upland Road, South Croydon, Surrey, CR2 6RE.
