Documentation and sample files for the OS-9 UUCP package, UUCPbb Copyright (C) 1990, 1993 Rick Adams and Bob Billson This file is part of the OS-9 UUCP package, UUCPbb. This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License for more details. You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA. The author of UUCPbb, Bob Billson, can be contacted at: bob@kc2wz.bubble.org or uunet!kc2wz!bob or by snail mail: 21 Bates Way, Westfield, NJ 07090 The file COPYING is the GNU General Public License. The DOC directory contains both doc and man pages files for the UUCPbb package. These files are formatted, ready-to-print on standard 8 1/2 x 11 inch paper, 66 lines per page. There are no printer control codes embedded in any of the files. Please READ the documentation. It will, I hope, make installing the program easy. If you find mistakes or unclear areas in the docs, please let me know. I don't like documentation that is unclear. While I am not a writer by profession, I would like to make the files as useful as possible. If they are unclear, they are not very useful. The SAMPLE directory contains various files which go in the /DD/SYS/UUCP when you are instructed to copy them there. You should edit these files to conform to YOUR system. The file UUCPBB.DOC will explain what to change. Each file contains an explanation of the file's contents. It is not necessary to delete this information after you finish installing UUCP. The MISC directory contains the following archives: SCF14.AR is Boisy Pitre's patch for OS-9/6809 Level 2 to allow SCF devices to be made non-shareable. Instructions for applying the patch are contained in the archive. MCRON12.LZH is Boisy Pitre's multi-user version of CRON for OS-9/6809. Instructions are contained in the archive CONVERTPALM.LZH is Jeff Shepler's utility for use with his mailer, Palm. If you are running Palm with Rick's original UUCP on the CoCo, use this utility to convert Palm's mail to the new form used by UUCPbb. UUTOOLS.LZH is a version of uuencode and uudecode which allows large files to split into smaller files. Many UUCP will reject mail files larger than about 100K. UUE (uuencode) allows you easier send a large file in smaller pieces. UUD (uudecode) allows you to put these pieces back together and decode than without a lot of hassles. Only the OS-9/6809 executables are in this file. Put these in your execution directory with names uue and uud. UUTOOLS_SRC.LZH is the source for UUE and UUD. It includes makefiles for the OS-9/6809 and OSK versions. Put the executables in your execution directory with the names uue and uud. CM.LZH is a mail monitor for use with UUCPbb under OSK. It runs in the background and checks for new mail at regular intervals. This utility was contributed by Boisy. Questions or suggestions about it should be sent to him. DESKTOP.LZH was also contributed by Boisy. The archive contains some AIF/icon files for a particular GUI on the MM/1 called Desktop.
