Cheung) Original-subject: Soc.culture.china Archives on ``Tiananmen Square 1989'' (VERY LONG) Reposted-by: emv@msen.com (Edward Vielmetti, MSEN) Soc.culture.china Archives on ``Tiananmen Square 1989'' ============================================================ Five megabytes of SCC archives collected during the period from May-17-89 through Jun-22-89 are available via standard anonymous-FTP on machine ahkcus.org, in directory scc-tam89 as files scc-tam89.[1-9].Z, which uncompress to over ten megabyes (243,758 lines, 1,394,303 words, 10,525,939 bytes). Altogether there are 4500 articles available, contained in nine compressed (.Z) files with each of them carrying 500. They had been automatically collected during the period and were sequentially organized per order of arrival, unedited. There are also two very simple programs, arc2mbox.c and arc2files.c, available in the same directory, which will convert the archives (after uncompression) into Unix mbox compatible format and bnews/cnews spooling format (which are just sequentially-numbered files with special headers) respectively. Regards, /aaron. [4500+ lines of headers deleted. --Ed]
