I have sent SEDT V3.3(239) dated 7-Nov-88 to everyone that requested it. Drop me a note if you didn't request it but now want it, or did request it and didn't receive it, or received a bad copy. I will try to fill individual requests mailed DIRECTLY TO ME. There are optional device drivers that allow this editor run on machines other than the Rainbow (e.g. IBM PC, XT, AT, Convertible, etc). The program (and required files) are in one archive; the quite extensive documentation is in a second archive; and the optional device drivers are in a third archive. Each archive is just over 100k bytes. If your node is a VMS machine on BITNET, I should be able to SEND you the archives in one piece by VMSDUMP. Otherwise, I will have to break up each of the two uuencoded archives into 4 or 5 long MAIL messages. Since the BITNET procedure is so much simpler (for both of us), try to give me an address of a VMS machine on BITNET if possible! -- Erik P.S. I will include instructions on decoding & unpacking the archives. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -- Erik A.

I received the files from Erik (thanks Erik) and the spaces at the end of the uuencoded files were stripped (by BITNET mailers?). So I did the following to fix them because I didn't have the programs mentioned by Erik. Thought I would let you know in case you have the same problems. You must have SED (Stream EDitor from UNIX). I saved the mail messages in files called file1 file2 file3 etc... then I used the following sed command: sed -e '/^END/,/^BEGIN/d' -e 's/$/ /' -e 's/^end */end/' file[1-9] This was done on a VAX/UNIX 4.3BSD from csh. It should work with SED on any system with the exception of the globbing on the file name (file[1-9]).
