[comp.binaries.ibm.pc.d] TSFAQ19B.ARC Frequently Asked Questions update at garbo

ts@uwasa.fi (Timo Salmi) (04/20/91)

Fri 19-Apr-91: I have brought some answers up to recent developments
in my Frequently Asked Questions, and the collection is currently
available as /pc/ts/tsfaq19b.arc. There are also a couple of new
questions in there.
   A note for readers of the Turbo Pascal section of my FAQ. There
are no changes in that section since the previous version.
   To read this FAQ package in a very convenient fashion, you are
well advised to get Jeroen Schipper's /pc/comm/rmail31b.zip ReadMail
program, even if the FAQ files can be read with any standard text
browsing method.
   A few users have inquired why I don't post these FAQs to UseNet
news on a regular basis.  There are three main reasons.  First, the
package is too big. Second, there are ten individual files within
the package. Third, there already are FAQs that are regularly
posted.  Raymond Chen has a FAQ posting for c.b.i.p.d, and there is
a useful FAQ in comp.graphics, and so on.
   I have also been asked the natural question why my FAQ is not in
ascii form. The reasons are similar. The entity is too big, and made
up of the individual constituents.
   I notice that there is now so much material in my FAQs that I
don't remember even myself what is in there, let alone what are all
the individual answers. All the more so, because there is also
material in there from others, not only from me.
