[net.unix] Catalog of Languages and Applications

TITCOMB%dec-marlboro@sri-unix.UUCP (12/21/83)

From:  Allan Titcomb <TITCOMB@dec-marlboro>

I am looking for any catalogs, on-line services, commercial or not that
provide information as to the various languages and applications that run
under UNIX.  Any help that can be given will be much appreciated.

/usr/group has a catalog of UNIX software that they sell... they have a table
at UniForm (in Jan or Feb in Washington), or you can get them mail order.
I don't have their address handy, but perhaps someone else does...

I hope this isn't too self-serving a reply.  Fortune Systems publishes
a software catalog listing all the products that run on our system.

Most of these products were developed by third-parties, and are sold by
them directly.  Fortune gets no revenue from the s/w sale, but obviously
benefits by additional system sales.  Of course, most of our own software
products are also listed.  

Although we didn't do so at first, we are now requiring vendors to submit
a copy of their programs to us for validation, prior to entry in the
catalog.

The contents of the catalog include a wide variety of vertical market
packages for different kinds of businesses, some horizontal accounting,
horizontal applications such as data bases, office schedulers, program
developement tools, and even a few games.

DEC puts out such a book for UNIX applications.  I don't recall its
exact title.  If you're lucky and someone answers the phone at your
local DEC office, maybe they can give you further information.
