Parts 1 and 3 of the list are in companion articles. Gene Spafford 29 December 1986 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- INFO-DEC-MICRO@SU-SCORE A forum for users to ask questions and share answers about various topics concerning DEC Microcomputers (ie Rainbow 100, MicroVax, Professional 350/380). All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to Info-DEC-Micro-request@SU-SCORE. Coordinator: Andrew Gideon INFO-FUTURES%BU-CS@CSNet-Relay.ARPA INFO-FUTURES@BU-CS (CSNET) ...harvard!bu-cs!info-futures (UUCP) Digest to provide a speculative forum for analyzing current and likely events in technology as they will affect our near future in computing and related areas. In broad terms, topics of interest include developments in both computing research and industry which are likely to affect our decision making, particularly decisions we are probably grappling with right this minute. Technologies can change so rapidly that simply forecasting for needs within any organization one or two years in advance can be extremely difficult, frequently we are forced to provide foundations that effectively lock us into a technology for longer periods of time. It is hoped the information this list provides can help both the practitioner and researcher determine where best to expend resources. All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to INFO-FUTURES-REQUEST%BU-CS@CSNet-Relay.ARPA. Moderator: Barry Shein INFO-GRAPHICS@ADS.ARPA Discussion of Graphics hardware, software, and any topic related to graphics. Basically a free-wheeling exchange of information, much like INFO-CPM. All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to INFO-GRAPHICS-REQUEST@ADS.ARPA. Coordinator: Andy Cromarty INFO-HAMS@SIMTEL20.ARPA A mailing list for Amateur Radio (not CB) operators. Archives are kept on host SIMTEL20 in the file: PS:HAMS-ARCHIV.TXT They are available via ANONYMOUS FTP from SIMTEL20 for those with TCP/IP access to the Internet. INFO-HAMS is gatewayed to/from Usenet's net.ham-radio so Usenet people will get it there. All Arpa/Milnet requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to INFO-HAMS-REQUEST@SIMTEL20.ARPA. Coordinator: Keith Petersen INFO-HZ100@RADC-TOPS20 INFO-HZ100 is a forum for discussion concerning topics related to the Zenith Z-100 (Heath H-100) family of professional desktop computers. Messages are forwarded for immediate redistribution to the main list. Distribution is limited to one central mailbox per site. Periodically, useful knowledge and items generated from the list and other random sources will be edited into a newsletter for distribution to both network and non-network interested groups. Any comments, suggestions, help, knowledge, software, ideas, etc., would be greatly appreciated. A Public Domain library of H/Z-100 software, newsletters, and other related items is available by ANONYMOUS FTP in @USC-ISIB. All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to INFO-HZ100-REQUEST@RADC-TOPS20. There is a BitNet sub-distribution list, INF-Z100@CLVM; BitNet subscribers can join by sending the SUB command with your name. For example, SEND LISTSERV@CLVM SUB INF-Z100 Jon Doe To be removed from the list, SEND LISTSERV@CLVM SIGNOFF. To make contributions to the list, BitNet subscribers should send mail to the ARPANet list name, NOT to the BITNET list name. Coordinator: Gern INFO-IBMPC@C.ISI.EDU Info-IBMPC is a forum for technical discussion of the IBM Personal Computer and compatible micro-computers, providing a way for interested members of the ARPANET community to compare notes, ask questions, and share insights of a technical nature about these machines. While it is not primarily a consumer's guide to the IBM PC, the digest may also be useful for that purpose. Messages are collected, edited into digests and distributed as the volume of mail dictates (generally twice a week). All messages of a technical nature about IBM PCs are welcomed; messages about other topics will not be run. In addition, two topics are taboo and are routinely edited out: (1) self promotion of products for sale, and (2) anything about copy protection. Recent digests are archived on USC-ISIC (C.ISI.EDU) in DIGESTS-85. Older digests are archived by quarter in the following files: Q1-DIGESTS-85 ; V4 # 1-40 [too big for mm, use hermes] Q4-DIGESTS-84 ; V3 # 91-119 Q3-DIGESTS-84 ; V3 # 70-90 Q2-DIGESTS-84 ; V3 # 36-69 Q1-DIGESTS-84 ; V3 # 1-35 Q4-DIGESTS-83 ; V2 # 71-104 Q3-DIGESTS-83 ; V2 # 40-70 Q2-DIGESTS-83 ; V2 # 20-39 Q1-DIGESTS-83 ; V2 # 1-19 Q34-DIGESTS-82 ; V1 # 1-34 These files can be read by MM, HERMES, and other TOPS20 mail systems. KWIC-INDEX.TXT contains a key-word-in-context index to digest articles. TOC.???85 contains a table of contents for the month ???. These files may be FTP'ed to any Arpanet/Milnet host from [USC-ISIC] by logging in within FTP using username ANONYMOUS, password GUEST. If you're not directly on the Arpanet the files can be mailed to you, although there is a limit to the length of a message. A library of free software is maintained in [USC-ISIC]. The list of available programs is in PROGRAM-LIBRARY.LIST. Donations of source code are eagerly welcomed (even trivial programs). Donated programs must be truly free, with no fee or contribution required or requested. To donate a program to the library, send a description of the program along with a copy of the source code to INFO-IBMPC-REQUEST. All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to INFO-IBMPC-REQUEST@C.ISI.EDU. There are BitNet sub-distribution lists (IBMPC-L@CANADA01, IBMPC-L@CEARN, IBMPC-L@DEARN, IBMPC-L@EB0UB011, IBMPC-L@FINHUTC, PC-L@OREGON1, IBMPC-L@TAMVM1, IBMPC-L@UBVM, IBMPC-L@UGA, IBMPC-L@UIUCVMD); BitNet subscribers can join by sending the SUB command with your name.and to the nearest LISTSERV node. For example, SEND LISTSERV@CEARN SUB IBMPC-L Jon Doe To be removed from the list, SEND LISTSERV@CEARN SIGNOFF. To make contributions to the list, BitNet subscribers should send mail to the ARPANet list name, NOT to the BITNET list name.

All the Kermit files are on CU20B in the area "KER:" or "K2:". The file KER:AAAREAD.ME contains information on what files are in the Kermit distribution area and how to find them. One file worth checking from time to time is KER:AAVNEW.HLP, a brief tabular listing of each existing version of Kermit, showing the version number and date of the latest release of each version. The file KER:AANETW.HLP lists in detail the procedures for obtaining Kermit files via network. Kermit files, including program source and documentation, are available as follows: Internet: anonymous FTP from host CU20B, area KER: or K2:, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. BITnet: from the KERMSRV server at host CUVMA; type SMSG RSCS MSG CUVMA KERMSRV HELP for further information. UUCP: from Oklahoma State University (host okstate) in Stillwater, OK. Mail to uucp-support%okstate@CSNET-RELAY for further information. Selected sources (usually Unix-related) are posted to net.sources from time to time. CCNET: DECnet NFT from host CU20B. Anonymous NFT connections are not permitted from all hosts, so file transfers must be made by system managers or programmers who have access to CU20B. U.S. Mail: send requests for information to: Kermit Distribution Columbia University Center for Computing Activities 612 West 115 Street New York, NY 10025 Info-Kermit mail was direct up until May 23, 1984, when it became a digest. The pre-digest messages are in KER:MAIL.83A and KER:MAIL.84A. Volume 1 of the digest is in KER:MAIL.84B. The current, active digest is in KER:MAIL.TXT. From time to time, active digests will be retired to files with names like KER:MAIL.85A, KER:MAIL.85B, and so on. All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to INFO-KERMIT-REQUEST@CU20B. If your host does not support long names in mail addesses, then just send to KERMIT@CU20B. There is a BitNet sub-distribution list, I-KERMIT@UGA; BitNet subscribers can join by sending the SUB command with your name. For example, SEND LISTSERV@UGA SUB I-KERMIT Jon Doe To be removed from the list, SEND LISTSERV@UGA SIGNOFF.

For those sites with FTP access to SUMEX-AIM, archives for INFO-MAC are kept under {SUMEX-AIM}ARCHIVE., where month = feb84,mar84,...jan85,... Programs submitted to the bulletin board, along with documentation files and other references are also stored in . With FTP access as user "anonymous" and any password,you can bring these files over to your host and download them to your Macintosh. "Usenet" and some of the other networks that copy info-mac will see sources redistributed at the time they are mentioned in the digest distributions. You can in addition, purchase a dump tape of the directory; see the file 00ORDER. is also the repository for the development tools and utilities developed at SUMEX and at other universities. The "sumacc" cross compiler is also available on tape for a minimal charge: See the file SUMACC.ORDER Messages to INFO-MAC@SUMEX-AIM are scanned to filter out any list requests, questions previously answered, pure speculation or opinion, or message obviously not in line with the stated purpose of the list. All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to INFO-MAC-REQUEST@SUMEX-AIM.

Archives of recent correspondence are kept on SIMTEL20 in several files: "PS:MICRO.ARCHIV.ymmdd" is a group of files containing correspondence going back several years. The characters "ymmdd" in the file names are actually digits giving the year, month and day of the last message in each particular file. "PS:MICRO-ARCHIV.TXT" contains a growing archive of current correspondence. Over 80 megabytes of public domain software (most of it CP/M) are kept in five program archives on SIMTEL20. For a description of these archives, request a copy of the "archive blurb" from INFO-CPM-REQUEST@AMSAA. All correspondence and program archives described here are available to Internet users via FTP with user-name ANONYMOUS. All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to INFO-MICRO-REQUEST@BRL. Coordinator: Ron Natalie INFO-MODULA-2@ROCHESTER.ARPA A discussion list for the Modula-2 programming language.

Modula-2 has most of the power of Ada but is small enough that excellent full implementations exist for CP/M 80. Mail archives are stored on SIMTEL20 in file: MODULA-2-ARCHIV.TXT They are available via ANONYMOUS FTP from SIMTEL20 for those with TCP/IP access to the Internet. All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to INFO-MODULA-2-REQUEST@ROCHESTER.ARPA.

All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to INFO-PASCAL-REQUEST@BRL.ARPA. INFO-PCNET@MC.LCS.MIT.EDU INFO-PCNET is a general mailing list to keep interested people advised of major developments. PCNET is a volunteer effort creating a computer network for personal use. Although meant to be device independent, the current design is oriented to use through the telephone system, particularly by computers with automatic dialing and receipt of calls. PCNET will enable all computer users, whether part of a formal network organization or individual owners of personal computers, to communicate with each other effectively. PCNET is defining communication protocols that assure that transmissions are correct (retransmitting data that is lost or erroneous), and which allow multiple logical data streams so that several programs can share a single hardware communication link. PCNET has defined a worldwide addressing standard that permits automatic forwarding of messages and files without having to know the topology of the network. PCNET is currently finising software on several machines (8080, 6502, PDP-10) using several languages (Assembly language, LISP, C), and refining the documentation; volunteer communications programmers are needed to complete these tasks. The PCNET files are on SIMTEL20 in directory PD:. SIMTEL20 supports ANONYMOUS login within FTP them using any non-null password. All requests to be added to or deleted from this list, problems, questions, etc., should be sent to INFO-PCNET-REQUEST@MC.LCS.MIT.EDU.

Coordinator: Richard Acuff INFO-TMODEM@SIMTEL20.ARPA BUG-TMODEM@SIMTEL20.ARPA The INFO-TMODEM list is a means for the maintainer of the TMODEM program to send notices to users of TMODEM. Users of TMODEM send bug reports and feature requests to BUG-TMODEM@SIMTEL20. TMODEM is a new TOPS-20 implementation of the Christensen Protocol, with all the latest features, such as: o wildcard file transfers in the style of MODEM7 (YMODEM batch is coming) o the YMODEM implementation of the K option with a new algorithm to return to K mode after falling back to "normal" mode o extensive built-in HELP for all commands and options. TMODEM is an amalgamation of the old TOPS-20 MODEM program, originally written by Bill Westfield while he was at SRI and now at Stanford, major pieces of the TOPS-20 TELNET program, currently maintained by Mark Crispin, and some pieces of code stolen from TTLINK and KERMIT-20 by Frank da Cruz at Columbia University. The archives for replaced mailing list INFO-MODEMXX are frozen in on SIMTEL20. A new set of archives for INFO-TMODEM is on SIMTEL20 in TMODEM-ARCHIV.TXT. The source for TMODEM is in TOPS-20:TMODEM.MAC, and must be compiled for each individual TOPS-20 system environment.

These implementations are hosted on top of TCP/IP using the method discussed in RFC983. Appropriate topics are: - Questions about how to use ISODE (and announcements of ports to other target environments) - Discussion of ISODE as a part of a TCP/IP to ISO migration strategy - Exchange of ideas regarding ISO-based applications running in a native TCP/IP environment - Debate regarding where ISODE should go next The list naturally has some overlap with the TCP-IP list, the ISO list, and so on; contributors are urged to use the appropriate list based on their topic of discussion. Archives are kept on host NRTC-GREMLIN.NORTHROP.COM (128.99.0.17). Use "anonymous" ftp to retrieve file "archive/isode.mbox" which represents the current archives.
