[net.wanted] rmcobol for vax

mjg@ukc.UUCP (M.J.Garside) (07/21/83)

does anybody know where we can get a version of rmcobol for a VAX/750
running 4.1bsd (and hopefully 4.2bsd one day)?

	thanks in advance

'rmcobol' is a command that removes all traces of cobol from an
otherwise pure UN*X, right?

rmcobol is ryan-macfarlane cobol, and nothing to do with removing
cobol from a system. fairly obvious really - all the adverts call
it "rmcobol".

so why, when we are trying to justify expensive connections to the U.S.
and time and manpower in the UK to build up a network, are the only
replies that we see, poking fun at serious requests?

europe stopped getting some news groups because of the garbage in them,
the uk is liable to follow the same course because we can't afford it.
why not go away and read the etiquette articles? and look through the
articles that have appeared in net.news recently about using the net
and links to europe.
