As Dave said, you'll need the source code. I'd almost be willing to bet
you're not going to find any Solaris CFX tag source code *anywhere*. Back
when I first tried writting CFX tags last year I couldn't find any source
code to any CFX tags peroid, except for the two Allaire examples. Even just
for Windows (which is partly why I release a lot of mine).

Things have changed a little since then though. Some of the NT tags you'll
run into probably will compile only with a few tweaks. Others would require
completely new code.  It just depends what it does and how they implemented
it.

The only good news is that if you find any linux cfx so code out there,
it'll probably translate over to solaris with very little if any
modifications. Solaris machines are extremely rare (haven't touched one
since comp drafting classes in college myself), but linux are being less so
as the days go on. Try looking for linux-based tags.
