Archive-site: fionavar.mit.edu [18.72.0.96] Archive-directory: /pub Reposted-by: emv@math.lsa.umich.edu (Edward Vielmetti) (This is a posting for Ira B. Ekhaus, ibekhaus@athena.mit.edu) There is an appointment calendar program called 'appt' available for anonymous ftp from fionavar.mit.edu. To get it: ftp fionavar.mit.edu [18.72.0.96] (login: anonymous, password: your username or whatever you want) The file is compressed, in the /pub directory, and called appt.shar.Z. Once you're connected, switch to binary format: ftp> binary ftp> cd pub ftp> get appt.shar.Z After you quit ftp, you'll need to uncompress the file (it is 29K compressed, 64K uncompressed) and extract it: uncompress appt.shar.Z sh appt.shar From there you can build it with 'make' (the makefile doesn't need editing); you'll need yacc and lex and cc. I've built it on a DECstation3100, VAXstation 3100, and on an IBM RT, all running Project Athena's variant of BSD4.3, and it works without problems. I can't guarantee it on any other platforms. The archive will remain on fionavar.mit.edu for a couple of months. Use and enjoy! ---------------------------------------------William Chuang, MIT '91 ARPA: wchuang@athena.mit.edu | Project Athena Student BITNET: wchuang%athena.mit.edu@MITVMA.BITNET| Consultant UUCP: ...!mit-eddie!athena.mit.edu!wchuang| -- ---------------------------------------------William Chuang, MIT '91 ARPA: wchuang@athena.mit.edu BITNET: wchuang%athena.mit.edu@MITVMA.BITNET UUCP: ...!mit-eddie!athena.mit.edu!wchuang

We use csos, a locally developed program, to handle appointment scheduling at the University of Illinois CSO consulting office. Csos was developed specifically for our needs, so I'm not sure if it is what you are looking for. I've made the csos src code available via ftp-anon to ux1.cso.uiuc.edu in the doc/csos directory. It is a compressed tar file called csos.tar.Z. Make sure to set your mode to binary when ftp'ing. Enjoy it!
