This is the case only for the older pascal version.

Yes, with SunOS- the program has been completely rewritten in C, and
the new version of the package (called molphy) can be obtained by gopher.
Connect to:
URL: gopher://megasun.bch.umontreal.ca:70/11/CMB/Phylogeny/Protml
or by anonymous ftp to sunmh.ism.ac.jp (133.58.12.20)
and look in /pub for the molphy files.
I also have a SunOS executable at the gopher site listed above.
I hope this helps,
Tim
