>CAP distribution 4.00 is now available. ...

I've got a few questions asking what CAP is, so here's a brief
description:

CAP is the Columbia AppleTalk Package for UNIX (4.2 BSD) (For use with
AppleTalk/Ethernet bridge).

CAP is written under UNIX BSD 4.2 and implements a portion of Apple
Computer's AppleTalk protocols.  In order to use this package you need
an AppleTalk/Ethernet bridge (e.g. Kinetics FastPath box).

CAP routines are structured, for the most part, the same as the Apple
routines described in "Inside AppleTalk" and "Inside LaserWriter."
Refer to the Apple documents and the procedure comments for a complete
description of the routines and how to call them.

Bill Croft's original work in this area provided the inspiration for
CAP.
