[comp.mail.uucp] uuslave.c hacked version in net.sources

mjranum@osiris.UUCP (02/06/87)

	I've had about 12 or so requests for the hacked-up version
of uuslave that I've been working on. I haven't had time to set it
up for testing, but I've worked the code over heavily, and have 
even made a few lint-improvements. I'm posting it in net.sources with
a "no guarantee" policy.
	I got curious on the innnards of uucp when I started playing
with this stuff. The SUN manuals have a lot of good stuff in the
/usr/doc section, incl. a decent description of the protocol.

	For those who want to flame me, please E-mail to me, rather
than kluge up the net.

It's not our stuff, though; it's basically just the original AT&T
documentation.  As such, most other vendors *should* be supplying
that stuff.  It also doesn't describe the "g" link-level protocol
used by UUCP, and without that there are limits on whom you could
talk to using UUCP.
