I remember some people asking where they could get uupc for the Mac. I just
picked up the following from pubnet.nixpub. I don't know anything about it,
so don't ask...
If anyone does grab this stuff and get it running, how about a review for
the net (how well it works, problems, speed, compatability, etc.)?

Steve is no longer working on this. He says mostly because he does not have access to a Mac anymore. I have conversed over email with Sam Lam also of the van-bc area. He has been keeping tabs on the progress of uupc for other machines (IBM PC, Amega, Atari). His last suggestion was to forget the Mac version that runs under Aztec Shell and report the current MS-DOS version. For those of you with ftp access the current MS-DOS version can be found on simtel20.army.mil. Log in as anonymous. The file is: pd:<msdos.uucp>interim.arc Remember this is a binary file. I haven't gotten a copy of it yet becasue I don't have a way to dearc the file. Pete Hoch
