[comp.sys.next] browser, again

jpm@lanl.gov (James P Mcgee) (02/03/90)

   A few weeks ago, there was a discussion about browsers,
and how to make one.  Several solutions were posted, and
the discussion ended (if memory serves me right) with a
particularly elegant solution.  However, like an idiot,
I didn't save it.

   Is there an archive where back messages to this
group are stored?  I looked at Purdue, Oregon, and U.Md.
without finding anything.

   If there isn't an archive, could some kind soul
please retrieve this from their own saved copy and
send it to me?

   Thanks, and my apologies for wasting network
space when I should have done it right the first time.

Look on cc.purdue.edu in pub/next/news for this years news, and in the subdir
1989 for last years news.  I've also started keeping the more current
news in the file called "current" in the news directory.  This way when I'm
late getting thing a month's news packaged, you still have access to it.

Several people have sent in requests in the past couple of weeks which I
haven't had a chance to add to the archives yet (I actually do real work to
:-).  I hope to bring the archives back up to date by the end of this week.
Watch for lots of new additions.  I'm also hoping to pick up anything on
any other archives and stash it on cc.purdue.edu.  If you would like your
archive listed in the "ARCHIVES" file, please let me know so I can update
that as well.

While I'm out here, please be sure to use the mail alias
"archive-management@cc.purdue.edu" for questions/comments about
the archive server or ftp directory, and "next-archive@cc.purdue.edu"
for submissions.  That way I can offload a bit of this work and
your submission may make it into the archives even sooner.
