[comp.sources.d] News, rn, patch, compress, etc., available via ftp

rsk@j.cc.purdue.edu.UUCP (06/19/87)

Since I frequently see requests for these, I thought I'd mention that
all of these sources are available via anonymous ftp to "j.cc.purdue.edu".
Most of at least close-to-up-to-date; we do try to keep them as current
as possible.  Sorry, can't UUCP them since we're not directly connected
to Usenet.  Here's [most of] the README file from the ftp "pub" directory:

-----
Files ending in ".Z" are compressed; see "compress.shar" for the
sources to compress if you don't have it.  Note that compressed files
should be transferred using ftp's "binary" mode.

Block

---- ----------		------------
 220 pucc-utils.shar	-- A number of locally-written/modified utilities
			of some use; includes backup (a front end for dump(8)
			which includes tape labelling, scheduling, etc.),
			calls (which prints the function calling patterns in
			C source ), junkmail (deletes mail based on size/age
			or sender), maketd (make transitive dependencies for
			Makefiles and whatnot), stat (read out contents of
			an inode ala stat(2)), untamo (daemon which logs
			out idle terminals) and yyreduce (add debugging
			code to a yacc generated parser).
