Message-ID: <6696@brl-tgr.ARPA> Date: Thu, 20-Dec-84 14:49:17 EST Article-I.D.: brl-tgr.6696 Posted: Thu Dec 20 14:49:17 1984 Date-Received: Sun, 23-Dec-84 00:11:42 EST Sender: news@brl-tgr.ARPA Organization: Ballistic Research Lab Lines: 21 Since the current policy is going in the direction of LBRs might I suggest that you LBR the ZCPR3 files... Right now there are so many that it would take massive typing to down load. Or people are going to do what I am about to do which is to whip out an old SNOBOL program to turn directory listings into submit files and down load them one at a time.. Another interesting idea I had not too long ago dealt with the problem of HEX files. You could create a special mail box where people could send requests for converting COM files to HEX files. A program could read the mail and auto- matically do the conversions. Of course the problem with this idea is that like all ideas it would take somebody to do it. I would volunteer but I am not going to be working at UT much longer (Friday is my last "real" day) so I guess this one can go in the bit bucket. I not sure of my near future status but I would like to let you guys know I appreciate all the work you have put into the maintenance of info-cpm & MICRO:. BTW, don't kill my subscription yet, I will let you know when my UT account is going to die. John Otken -------
