As president of the Pyramid User's Group, I would like to extend an invitation
to you to join us. PUG's main purpose is communication:
o Among the members (hints, experience with software packages,
solutions to problems, the PUG library tape, etc.).
o From Pyramid to PUG (future directions, announcements, etc.).
o From PUG to Pyramid ("wish lists" of desired enhancements,
bug lists, etc.).
PUG meets twice a year at Usenix/Uniforum.
The library tape contains many useful programs already compiled for Pyramids,
including:
asciibin - a pair of simple file compression programs
cc68 - 68000 cross compiler system.
compress - compress files to save space (Versions 3.0 & 4.0 avail.)
cpp - (from mod.sources V1) C pre-processor suitable for use with Decus C
daytime - print time and date in specified formats
del - safe version of rm - allows restoration of files
dirtree - display directory in graphical manner
getpaths - (from mod.sources V6) tabulate UUCP netnews pathlists
gnuemacs - system file editor version number 17.57
grotwin - runs windows on standard terminals
kermit - microcomputer/mainframe file transfer program
sendmail - (from mod.sources V1) GaTech Sendmail configuration
uuque - (from mod.sources V1) a uuwizard's utility for uucp queue snooping
vcal - a visual calendar/event planner
xmodem - file transfer protocol for microcomputers and mainframes
This is a very small subset, send me e-mail if you want the full list.
If you are interested in joining, print out the form below, fill it out,
and send it in!
Thanx, Paul

A system file editor edits files on a computer system :-) (btw, it allows you to edit binaries as well as text). I am the one who put the tape together. When I did, there was only a beta verson of gnu release 18. I opted for version 17 because it was guaranteed to work. Version 18 (or whatever the latest version is at the time I make tape 2) will be included in the next tape. Questions are always welcome. Jon -- Sometimes a fish needs a bicycle...
