Softway Systems Inc has enhanced its OpenNT commands and utilities suite that brings Unix commands and utilities and Posix.2 compliance to Windows NT by adding support for the Unix KornShell and Posix command shells, a bunch of other Unix utilities and new documentation. OpenNT is priced at $200 for a single processor license. The San Francisco, California-based company is also now offering its promised $100 software development kit for developing and porting Unix applications on to Windows NT. Meantime, OpenNT TelNet Server 1.0 allows multiple users to log on into an NT system and access OpenNT Posix/Unix shells or Windows NT command shell. It9s priced from $100. SoftWay is supposed to make NT fully compatible with X/Open Co Ltd9s XPG4 brand by mid-1997, making NT Unix 95 brandable. The Intel Corp-based OpenNT is also now up on DEC Alpha machines running NT. SoftWay9s building OpenNT under a long-standing agreement with Microsoft Corp.
