src/copyright Copyright attribution code
src/rnews-code Alternative interface to netnews
src/xprcv-s.cf Shortname (>14 char) version of xprcv.cf
src/xprcv.cf Table of category->newsgroup names for rnews-code
rnews-code looks like a much better way to get articles into a netnews
system. Among other things, it gets newsgroup names from a table instead
of a big case statement.
xprcv.cf contains the newsgroup name table. I noticed that the
newsgroup names would exceed the 14 character filename limit on some
systems (like mine, until SVR4...) and so I took a stab at shortening
them and put that in xprcv-s.cf.
copyright contains a table of copyright attributions that we really should
include in whatever code is used.
You can grab all four of these with the following message body sent
to xpress-archive@csd.mot.com:
send src/copyright
send src/rnews-code
send src/xprcv-s.cf
send src/xprcv.cf
They're all plain text files, not shar'd or encoded or anything. Have fun!
