[fa.info-mac] A Couple Requests

From: ECN.eb@Purdue.ARPA (Limited Ed.)

There are a lot of programs available now in the <info-mac>
directory on sumex.  However I don't remember the exact
names and since I don't have direct ftp access I can't just
browse through to find out what I want.  If I knew the exact
name of something I could probably convince someone to get
it for me.  Is there a directory of what is available?  A
breakdown of MacApplications, Unix commands, Tops20 commands,
etc. would also be nice.  If such a listing is not available,
would somebody be willing to create one (and keep it
current)?

I noticed that there are filters available to convert
MacWrite and MacPaint documents to be printed on a laser
printer.  Has anyone considered a filter to convert to a
standard format and then other filters (possibly already
existing) from this format to various output devices?  I
know a bunch of people that want to use their Printronix and
I thought this would be a better way to go about it.
