Last year I wrote a mid-size program for calculating infrared transitions in
small molecules, it does a lot of calcualtions, but no screen IO.
There are minor differences (Borland is more "intelligent" handling
strings, HP is nearer to tho C++ standard) do I recommend writing some
code on with the famous Borland IDE, compile it, make ftp and try to
compile it under HP-UX, and so on.

I'm new to C & C++.  Does anyone know whether the C++ on the HP/UX
operating system is able to cross compile source from PC based C++
software development products?  I understand the ANSI/C on both sides
are compatible but does that hold true for C++?  If so, which C++ is the
best pick for that, Borland, Mircrosoft, or whatever?  I need to support
HP/UX C or C++ from a remote site and would prefer not to be online
during development and maintenance.

Thanks,
Denny
