I have received 25+ messages telling me about biff(1), csh(1), and sysline(1), all of which I don't like, nor do I wish to use. biff(1): Does a chmod on my tty so comsat can kill my whole screen and bother me to no end. I didn't want that. csh(1): Notifies me only on command, hence, if I relax and watch TV, I only wish to glance at my terminal to see if I have any mail, after all, my system stands single user most of the time. (not mit-eddie, futura). sysline(1): Does not work on any terminals I have access too. As I have seen, it's a nice program, too bad it's got such limited terminal support. *Please* I posted that source as a service to users who might wan't something less then comsat, but more then the C shell. I do not wish to hear about my options, though the thought is appreciated. Thank you for your time. -- Shawn F. Mckay Uucp: mit-eddie!shawn Arpa: Shawn at Mit-Mc
