[comp.sys.amiga] ARP 1.3 manpages

jwhitman@stl-06sima.army.mil (Jerry Whitman) (09/17/89)

Well, here I go again.  Several weeks ago I asked about an FTP source for
the ManPages for ARP 1.3.  At that time they were only on a few private
or otherwise remote BBS or net facilities.  I had hoped to see some one
proclaim thier existance at some FTP site or server.  

Does the ManPages for Arp 1.3 reside somewhere that I can access via
FTP, server or just plain E-Mail?  I would really like to get a copy so
I can complete the ARP 1.3 distribution package for a loal group of 
users.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards, Jerry

I sent this out several days ago and never saw it appear on amiga-relay, nor
did I see any response, so I can only assume that our mail system got me
again.  (It has been known in the past to eat an occasional message.  Just
can't be satisfied with an occasional line!!)
So...... O N E   M O R E    T I M E  ! ! ! ! ...................

If you can FTP, there is a file on trantor.umd.edu [128.8.10.14] which >seems<
to be release 1.3 ARP docs.  Get /info-amiga/pub/arpdoc3.zoo.  >Bela<

	I don't know who is giving you the flack, but the docs for Arp 1.3
have been out for several months. I got them off of People Link at least
3 months ago. There must be a FTP site that has them by now.

TO: The ARP developers:

A few days ago I posted a message inquiring of the whereabouts of 
the ARP1.3 manpages.  As a result of that post I have received mail
indicating I should not badger you folks, bvut to be patient and I
will get the manpages when the rest of the world did.  I guess the
wording must not have been clear, for I was in NO WAY pressuring
the developers.  Allow me to explain...

The first time I posted (in early June) to inquire of the 
where-abouts of these elusive manpages I received two replies that
they did indeed exist on a couple BBSs, one commercial and the other a 
user group.  Since I did not have dial-up capabilities here I did not
follow up to see if in fact they did exist for 1.3.

Given the responses I suspect they were probably 1.2, but again, that is
pure speculation on my part.

I shall try to be patient and await the official arrival that I thought
had already occurred, (but it ain't gonna be easy!).

Regards,  Jerry.
