The following is the contents of aaread.me in the OS-9 source code archive that Bob Larson has started to keep. Is there anyone out there who knows of a way in which we non-ARPA types can get to the software herein (and just as importantly, contribute to it!) without causing undue traffic or bother to blarson (after all, if someone's nice enough to start such a beast, said person is not one to get ausgepissed)? I'd love to get micro-emacs, and could contribute various and sundry programs I've written for OS-9. Remember, the more tools there are out there, the better!

The readme in James Jone's article is a bit old... both MicroEmacs and the new version of Kermit have been available for a while. (Kermit has been sent to the columbia kermit people also, so it should be available for uucp or kermit from okstate.) I sent a disk to the os9 users group conatining kermit, microemacs, sysgo, and a couple of other things that they probably won't distribute due to their current copywrite policy. Submissions can be by ftp or mail... I recomend compress 4.0 and btoa for sending large sources by mail. If there is interest, I could probably make them available via bitent also. I would need help setting theis up either on a vax/vms system or a vm/cms system. If there is anything else I can do to help make these available please let me know. The main reason I won't mail them out is due to the time it would take me... I know from experience with os9 kermit. -- Bob Larson Arpa: Blarson@Usc-Ecl.Arpa Uucp: ihnp4!sdcrdcf!oberon!blarson
