[ont.events] Unix Unanimous - November 22

evan@telly.on.ca (Evan Leibovitch) (11/18/89)

The next meeting of Unix Unanimous will take place Wednesday, November 22
at 6:45pm, in the Rose Room of the North York Memorial Community Hall.

The topic for the November meeting is Unix text formatting software.
Chris Lewis from Elegant Communications will first give a presentation,
and later answer questions, about the 'troff' and 'nroff' packages that
until recently were a standard part of the Unix release.

Richard Lathwell, also of Elegant Communications, will speak briefly
about the Tex formatting system, and its main differences with troff.
(A more complete presentation on TeX will be given at the Jan. 24 meeting.)

Also, Liam R. Quin of Unixsys (UK) Ltd has offered to speak to us about
the state of Unix in Britain.

If we have any time left over after all that, the meeting will be thrown
open, so anyone can present their Unix questions or problems for discussion.

As was the case last month, this meeting will have a deli spread. Cost
will be determined at mealtime, depending on how many are eating, but
will likely be less than $7.00. If you have not replied yet, please send
me e-mail me if you intend to attend, so I can properly plan for the 
number of eaters.

Unix Unanimous is an informal group of enthusiasts who meet on the
fourth Wednesday of each month, to socialize and discuss (sometimes in
great technical detail) Unix-related topics of mutual interest. There
is a loose affliliation with /usr/group/cdn (which pays for the room
rental) but there are no fees or memberships in anything required to attend.

Newcomers are always welcome.

The North York Memorial Community Hall is located on the bottom floor of
the new North York Main Library building, located next to North York
City Hall at the corner of Yonge Street and Park Home Avenue, about half
way between Sheppard and Finch. By TTC, take the subway to North York
Centre station.

E-mail me (or call me at 452-0504) if you need further information.
