The discussion about source posting to comp.os.coherent is still going on so I wait and see what happens. Seems to get interesting now. I like the ideas of creating a comp.sources.small-unix. A friend now ftp'ed WMAIL, WNEWS, TASS for me to piggy. Only some people have possibilities to FTP sources so please help. I now found just one article from Rich Nickle (Mr. CoMB) who offers such a help via EMAIL. But I think that there a lot of more people out there. I was in the same position as most people. Sitting here in my home at my machine (only fun time Unixer, I earn my money with assembler programming). And I had the luck to get EMAIL from a guy who offers help, sources he ftp'ed from piggy. Otherwise Coherent has just been a waste of money, nevertheless I only had to pay update for Coherent 2.3.43 (1985 !!) to 3.1. So make people lucky, Joachim +---------------------------------------+-------+-------------------+-------+ | Joachim Riedel | @ @ | Don't worry, | @ @ | | Geschwister-Scholl-Strasse 48 | \_/ | keep smiling | \_/ | | D-6050 Offenbach am Main +-------+-------------------+-------+ | Tel. +49 69 85 62 25 | joachim@jrix.radig.de | +---------------------------------------+-----------------------------------+

I've FTP-access for a few days more. Most of the piggy-sources are already here. I think many of them are too long to send them via e-mail, but I'll copy them to 5.25'' HD's (tar) or 3.5'' (atari-st-format) (your's of course. Include carriage please). The HD's will be written in background,- much better then DOS, eh? :-) -- Michael Lipka, Buxtehude, Germany -------------------------------------------------------------------- | I04LIP@DHHDESY3.BITNET | lipka@lip.hanse.de | lipka@mcshh.hanse.de --------------------------------------------------------------------
