This note is just in response to a number of mail messages
from various people showing an interest in the CRISP editor
I recently mentioned.
It is not yet currently available over usenet/bitnet.
It is available on the BIX conferencing system in
the grief.listings area if anyone has access to that.
I would like to make it available if anyone can tell
me where to post it such that it wont take 3 or more months to
appear on the net.
The version on BIX is slightly out of date (version 1.7).
If anyone has any more questions, please e-mail.

[[Mail to you on this subject was bounced.]] I suggest doing what rich $alz recently did with some sources of his own: 1) Post them to alt.sources. Add a note at the top that you have tested on certain machines and flavor(s) of OS, and provide an e-mail address for collecting bug reports and porting difficulties. 2) After a sufficient shake-down period, incorporate the reported improvements and post to comp.sources.unix. Post patches to alt.sources. This allows people who are anxious to try it out to get the current version quickly; they also understand that it may cause some problems. The patches allow the early implementors to bring their copy up to the same level as the comp.sources.unix posting without waiting for it. If you don't get alt.sources, you need to recruit a volunteer to handle this for you. Perhaps someone with both Usenet and BIX access could do it most easily. ---- Fritz Whittington Texas Instruments, Incorporated I don't even claim these opinions myself!
