[comp.sys.apple] ShrinkIt 1.0

SASQUATCH@ALBION.BITNET ("Kevin O. Lepard 629-5511 x6668", 517) (03/02/89)

Does anyone on the net have Shrink It 1.0?  I thought Andy sent it out
to some people.  If so, could someone please post it to Apple2-l?

Thanks in advance.

For all those interested:

I just posted ShrinkIt 1.0 as a BLU'd file (.BQY file) to apple2-L.
You might want to have a copy of BinSCII handy to convert the files.

If anyone is interested, I could post a summary from the documentation of
all that was done to v1.0.

How about posting it to an internet site so us INTERNET people can get
a copy.  Oh, does anyone else have a problem FTPing to husc6?  I get
a connected message, but it never asks me for username, password...

I am looking forward to trying ShrinkIt.  However, in searching the
index of APPLE2-L, I was unable to find anything called BinSCII.  Is
it there under some other name?  If not, could someone please post
BinSCII to APPLE2-L.  Does BinSCII run on your Apple, or is it used
to massage the files on your mainframe system?

Doug if you can't find BinSCII, check comp.binaries.apple2.  Dave Whitney
recently uploaded another copy of the program.

When is ShrinkIt v1.0 going to be uploaded to comp.binaries.apple2.  If some
one has a copy could you mail it to me or upload it to comp.binaries.apple2. 
I would downloaded it from the apple2-l myself except that i can't send mail
to bitnet, but i can send mail everywhere else.


Does anyone know how i can send mail to the listserv@brownvm without going
through bitnet?

Most (all?) of the Internet sites get their archives from APPLE2-L.
Given what Chris, Paul, Todd, and others get paid ($0.00) for the
effort, it's not surprising that it sometimes is not as fast as an
photon in a vacuum.

Patience. Binscii, Shrinkit 1.0, and other goodies will show up at the
Internet sites and on comp.binaries.apple2 bye and bye.
