Recently I was asked to 'obtain' a time management system for our VAX8600 (running BSD4.3). The need for such a system is to enable a secretary to schedule meetings with professors, etc without having to consult them or their paper diaries but simply to look at their electronic calanders and search for a convenient time slot for all involved. So far I only know of ones for an IBM mainframe, the SUNs or VMS. Does anyone know of a "public domain" version or one that will run under U*X ??

The only set of "freebie" time/date/meeting management programs is the loosely coupled set known as "month, appt, sched, nag and remind" Month runs under BSD, SYSV, and XENIX(V7&S5). Appt and sched run under BSD, maybe SYSV and not on XENIX(V7). If you want more info or sources, you can contact me: -- Marc A. Ries sdcrdcf!---\ ihnp4!------\----- trwrb! --- ries
