I just logged on that machine, typed ls, and got swamped by a directory of 25 kchars with filenames like '12.23.1989'. Which files contain informa- tion on Shuttle missions? I'm only interested in the date, as I plan to visit Florida next March and would like to watch one of the birds launching. Perhaps other readers of this group are also interested in what the contents of all these files might be. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dieter Kreuer, Lehrstuhl Informatik IV, Ahornstr.55, D-5100 Aachen dieter@informatik.rwth-aachen.de = dieter@rwthinf.uucp -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
