[comp.lang.forth] OLIS: The story so far

trolfs@vax1.tcd.ie (Tommy) (10/01/89)

    On Sept 22th, OLIS was opened for business. On Monday 25th Sept, a
    major bug cropped up which caused 12 requests to be lost and files
    sent to other people who did not request anything. Since that Monday 
    I've had to rewrite OLIS. The new version is now fully finished.

    While I was rewriting OLIS, some requests might have been lost. If
    you have not had a reply from OLIS then resend your requests. OLIS is
    in working order now. (Sorry for any inconvenience)

    Also new is the HELLO, HELP, and CONTENTS files. The PATH command has
    changed slightly (see the new HELP file). A new file called PC-FORTHS
    has been added (tells you where you can get PD FORTHS for your PC).

    Also, thanks to everyone for using OLIS. OLIS has had requests from as
    far away as Australia! Hopefully more people will use OLIS AND
    contribute to the files (Thanks Karl for the stuff on the PC FORTHS!)

    I'm thinking of keeping a mailing list of people who want monthly or
    bimonthly updates on new files that are added to OLIS. If anyone is
    interested in being on the list then let me know.

    Anyway, tell your friends about OLIS and get them/you to send any info
    they/you can to "TROLFS@vax1.tcd.ie". It needs files badly. Thanks.
