[comp.text.tex] TUG Proceedings

bed_gdg@SHSU.BITNET ("George D. Greenwade") (03/20/91)

As announced in TeXhax Digest (V91 #013) by Peter Flynn, Christine Thiele has
valiantly compiled four files of abstracts for the proceedings of the 1987-1990
TUG meetings.  I am pleased to announce that Peter had forwarded me these files
and that they are now available from FILESERV@SHSU.BITNET (FILEserv, **not**
LISTserv).  Below is the description file generated by a LIST TUGPROC command
sent to FILESERV@SHSU.BITNET.
 
On a unrelated note, our site was indeed down due to disk and system problems
Sunday and Monday.  I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused, but
believe we were able to retrieve all submissions during this period.  If you
made a submission to INFO-TeX or requested a file from FILESERV during this
time period and have yet to see it, I ask for your patience and request that
you please re-submit your post.
 
Regards,   George

                                  TUGPROC
                                  -------
TUGPROC includes abstracts of the proceedings of the TeX Users Group (TUG),
as compiled by Christina Thiele <Christina_Thiele@CARLETON.CA> and provided
by Peter Flynn <CBTS8001@IRUCCVAX.UCC.IE>.  Complete source citations are
provided in each abstract.
 
To retrieve the complete package of abstracts, please include the command:
SENDME TUGPROC
in the body of a MAIL message to FILESERV@SHSU.BITNET.  Alternately, if you
wish to only retrieve a specific file from this package, include the command:
TUGPROC.yyyy
in the body of a MAIL message to FILESERV@SHSU.BITNET (where "yyyy"
represents the year).  Hence, the 1990 abstracts are included in TUGPROC.1990
and the command SENDME TUGPROC.1990 will retrieve this specific file.
FILESERV will handle multiple requests so long as each resides on a unique
line in the body of the MAIL message.
 
Available in this package:  (1 Block = 512 bytes)

Please note that no attempt has been made to break these files into smaller
portions -- they are transferred "as is."  Files in excess of 33 512-byte
blocks (TUGPROC.1988 and TUGPROC.1989) will not be transferred immediately
between the hours of 0900 and 1700 CST, Monday through Friday, but will be
enqueued for delivery after these hours.
