[net.unix-wizards] L_stat and L_sub?

chuqui@nsc.UUCP (The Phantom) (03/05/85)

I was cleaning up some uucp loose ends, and I realized I had two files in
/usr/lib/uucp that I didn't know the purpose of. Even more interesting, I
can't find reference to them in the source code. The files are L_stat and
L_sub. Are they leftovers from an earlier version, or am I missing
something somewhere? For reference, my current configuration is the
standard 4.2 distribution Unix-- the only logical place they could have
come from is 4.1, but I don't remember them there, either. Can someone clue
me in?

L_stat and L_sub are used by uustat and uusub, a pair of obscure
programs written by her-daw che, used by no one.  uustat reports the
status of spooled and completed transactions, while uusub is a failed
attempt at helping to administer a uucp subnetwork.

we got rid of uusub in honey danber, and made uustat a moderately
useful tool relying on logs and status files, instead of dross.
