An earlier msg to this list offered TMYCIN, a small EMYCIN-like expert system tool. Due to a policy of not distributing code on AILIST, the code was excised by the editor. The TMYCIN files are located on R20.UTEXAS.EDU ; Arpanet sites should be able to get them, from directory <AI.NOVAK> , by anonymous FTP. If you can't get them by FTP, let me know and I'll attempt to mail them. The single file TMYCIN.ALL contains all the material appended together. That may be the easiest to FTP. The individual files are TMYCIN.CL , TMDOC.DOC , TMTEST.CL . TMYCIN.CL is the largest, at about 22K chars. Personally, I think AILIST should change its policy on distributing source code; it would benefit a lot of people and be more valuable than much of the material that appears on AILIST now. I have had poor luck in mailing code to non-Arpanet sites. So long as code is identified as such so that people can skip it if they don't want to see it, I don't see the objection to including it. The bibliography lists are each as big as the TMYCIN code, and lots of them are put on the AILIST. If anyone wants to move the TMYCIN files to repositories of code where people can get it more easily, that is fine with me. And let me add my support to the idea of starting such a repository on the Arpanet. Cheers, Gordon -------
