Initial checkin for GNO, such that it actually compiles and links. No functional differences. Not tested.

Fixed bug (via the BROKEN_DIRENT_STRUCT macro) that was causing filename-munging on Solaris. It seems that the sys/stat.h header file doesn't agree with the stat implementation. Modified Makefile.gs to properly write the new executable over the old resource fork for udl. The resource fork originates with the file udl.r. Added suggested defines to the README for various Unix platforms. Man page changes, including grammar and the deletion of a bug that no longer exists. Fixed bug where invoking 'udl -u directory' would attempt to deref a NULL pointer, causing either memory tromping (IIgs) or a core dump (Unix). Tested under SunOS 4.x, SunOS 5.x (Solaris), and AIX.

is responsible for this behavior is itself recursive. The default 2k

should not normally be a problem. If the limit is exceeded,
