[unix-pc.general] Periodic skeeve info posting

arnold@skeeve.UUCP (Arnold D. Robbins) (04/24/89)

Once again, it is time to update the list of interesting software that
is available via anonymous UUCP from skeeve. The software is described
below.

Here are the details:

	Phone:		+1 404 633-1813 - 1200 baud Unix/PC on-board modem
	Login:		getnews
	Password:	getnews
	Directory:	/usr/spool/uucppublic/dist

The files available are listed by group. Each line is the file name,
the size in bytes, and a brief description of the contents.

The .Z suffix means this stuff is compressed. You can get compress from
THE STORE!, and it comes with the news software.

The phone line listed above is dedicated to skeeve, so feel free to call
at any time of day. It is however, only the 1200 baud modem that comes
with the 3B1. I don't own a trailblazer or even a 2400 baud modem, and
probably never will....

There is a file named INDEX in the directory that will be an up to date
ls -l of what I have.

I have replaced 3.44 with the newest released version, 3.45.

As always, the file INDEX (also named index) is an up-to-date ls -l
of everything that's available.  Fairly often I update what's there
as things come out, even if I don't post a note to unix-pc.general.
