Hello, I maintain an archive-server that runs under Unix. One of the things that this archive-server does is take many files and convert them into one file (eg. Unix-tar or shar). It also converts binary files into text (eg. uuencode). wI currently have arc, dclshar, shar, tar, zoo for archivers and btoa, rscs, uuencode for encoders. I would like to be able to support amiga people. So what I would like from you are archivers and encoders that will run under Unix (or at least written in fairly portable C code) that will produce files that amiga people will like. Or if you already use one of the progs that I am currently using I would like to know that. Please email to me. I don't read this group. thanks -- Michael DeCorte // H215-546-0497 W386-8164 Fax386-8252 // mrd@clutx.bitnet 2300 Naudain St. "H", Phil, PA 19146 // mrd@sun.soe.clarkson.edu --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Clarkson Archive Server // commands = help, index, send, path archive-server@sun.soe.clarkson.edu archive-server%sun.soe.clarkson.edu@omnigate.bitnet dumb1!dumb2!dumb3!smart!sun.soe.clarkson.edu!archive-server ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Anyone knows of >a 'find' program for the Amiga? I'm running Cshell v3.03a. Any other way? Yes, there is an Amiga find. I have been using it for quite a while now. I think I got it off this net (comp.sources.amiga). Source was include. The ARP (Amiga Replacment Project) shell (also known as ASH) can do unix style piping (using the PIP: device that comes with ConMan) and you should be able to pipe the output of find into zoo as shown above. I just got through uploading find to BIX. Maybe it should be (re-?)posted here? Ok, I found it (here at work). It was written by Rodney Lewis. I have the source, and its version 1.2. It was posted in comp.sources.amiga in march of this year (1989). > aliu@nunki.usc.edu > Forwarded (MD) -- Rodger Anderson (rodger@hpdml93) or(rodger%hpdml93@hplabs.hp.com)
