From: walton%deimos@cit-hamlet.arpa Here at Caltech we've been pretty happy with the program called 'tc', short for 'teleconference', which is part of the Software Tools mail system. This lacks some of the fancier terminal handling capabilities I've seen on some, but in return is closely coupled to the Tools mail, so that forwarding of messages to a public bulletin board and/or to indi- vidual users is trivial. All of our subscriptions to ARPAnet bulletin boards, including INFO-VAX, come into 'tc' files. Hitch: our Tools mail system is locally fixed to run under VMS V4. The Spring '83 DECUS distribution of the Tools mail system will crash VMS V4. I don't know if an "official" V4 Tools is out yet, not being a regular reader of the DECUS catalog. Stephen R.
