bed_gdg@SHSU.BITNET ("George D. Greenwade") (05/02/91)
Due to the increasing size of the complete annotated directory of packages
available on FILESERV, I have added a new command feature which is similar
to VM-based LISTSERV's -- SENDME FILELIST. This is not added to preclude
using an unmodified DIRECTORY (or LIST) command -- if you want a full list
and description of all files and all packages, please feel free to do so
(just be aware that this is a very large and growing listing -- nearly 67k
now!). Instead, FILELIST was added to allow you to get information about
what specific packages you might want to look at.
Below is (a) a description of FILELIST's use and (b) the most current
FILELIST output.
Regards and thanks for your interest in our services, George

FILELIST
--------
FILELIST is a file containing a listing of all package names available from
FILESERV@SHSU.BITNET. Each package has a one- or two-line description of
its contents. Specific instructions about a package and lists of files
within packages are not included (this can be retrieved using the FILESERV
command LIST package_name). FILELIST is provided to assist users in
searching for the existence of a package without the trouble of retrieving
the complete annotated directory listing of all packages.
To retrieve FILELIST, please include the command:
SENDME FILELIST
in the body of a mail message to FILESERV@SHSU.BITNET.
