Take a look at UUPC (UUPC for Personal Computers) before you start off on your own programs, you can probably save some time that way. On BITNET, you can retrieve the UUPC sources distribution from the server at LISTSERV@NDSUVM1. Just send it the command "GET MINIX UUPCn", where "n" is a digit between 0 and 8. For more information on how to use the server, send it the "HELP" command. ...Sam -- Samuel Lam <Samuel.Lam@van-bc.UUCP> or {ihnp4!alberta,watmath,uw-beaver}!ubc-vision!van-bc!skl

Now here is something that is getting a little drawn out for me. I would like to see UUPC for at least the IBM PC, but also for the Amiga. Now, I've been told how to get via Bitnet, and by annonymous ftp, both of which I am unable to do. I have also been given the address to contact for these items. I have mailed to the address three times, with never a response. However, since I've never received a failed reply, I must assume that it at least reached it's destination. Of course, in the time that has past, I have lost the address (as usual). Now, how can I get my hands on this without pulling my own teeth? Email response is preferred.
