One last time, dos-brains, look at the title of this group. It is "binaries". Hopefully, this textual reminder will be the last one that gets posted for a long time. Pardon my ill manner, but I am getting really tired of trying to skim through groups where I expect to see certain types of Subject: headers in certain places (I expect to see available programs here, not the umpteenth request for Nethack/pkarc ad nauseum). There are sources.wanted groups, in addition to the PC group. You wouldn't make a big /bin directory on your hard disk, and then throw a bunch of documentation in there (you'd use a /text or /doc directory, I hope), so don't treat the net the same way by generating a bunch of articles that don't belong here (I post here *only* to have maximum effect this one time, *please* direct any followups you have to another group or to me personally, but don't get all carried away here... it isn't the place for it, and that is my point)... have some consideration for your fellow readers! There is a place on the net for everyone, and for lots of useful sources, binaries, articles, etc. Think first! Look at the names of newsgroups, and post accordingly... dan dan smith, island graphics, marin co., ca | "I am responsible for everything uucp: ..!ucbvax!ucbcad!well!island!daniel | I've ever said since 1960!" uucp: ..!ptsfa!unicom!daniel !well!daniels | (415) 332 EASY (h) 491 1000 (w)
