jsq@ut-sally.UUCP (John Quarterman) (06/05/84)
I've just posted yet another net.news.map reader to net.sources.
The first paragraph of that article is as follows:
The rest of this article following this paragraph is a shar archive
containing a Bourne shell script (and its manual entry) which can be
used as a command to interpret the USENET news map information posted
to net.news.map by cbosgd!map as well as to show the route to a site
chosen by certain kinds of UUCP mail routing software. When called
by inews according to a line in news/sys, the same shell script can
be used (with the appropriate option) to automatically update the
local copy of the map when new articles come in from cbosgd!map.
Though this command is used here under 4.2BSD, I do not believe there
is anything in it that will not work under System V, System III, or even
Version 7. Whether it will work with news software prior to B 2.10,
I have no idea.
