These programs are all for m68k Apollo nodes unless otherwise stated. Questions? E-mail to rees@citi.umich.edu (Jim Rees). ** Q-and-A The Apollo "Frequently Asked Questions" file. ** Anon-FTP-sites A list of sites on the Internet accepting anonymous ftp. ** Bugs A tirade from system@aurum.chem.utoronto.ca (System Admin (Mike Peterson)). ** Readme.xntp How to keep your node clocks in sync ** alarm.tar.Z A little X program that sits in the corner of your screen and has buttons for copying between the X and DM cut/paste buffers. Also does biff and has an alarm clock. Undocumented. ** aplot.c Program for plotting Unix plot(5) files using GPR ** b-news-patch.tar.Z Very old patches to B news to do reasonable locking of the 'active' file. Only marginally useful in today's brave new world of nntp. The locking routines may be useful in other programs. ** date.tar.Z Program for setting one node's clock from another node's. ** epoch-patches.tar.Z Patches to make epoch 3.2 run on your Apollo. Epoch is a modified version of GNU Emacs 18.55 with several major enhancements: o Multiple X-Window support o Marked and Attributed regions of text o Support for multiple fonts (fixed size), underlining, and stipple patterns. o Asynchronous communication with other X-Clients (usually the window manager) o Mouse-dragging with highlighting to support mouse-based cut-and- paste. o Access to raw X-Window objects ** ether-switches Settings for the 3-Com 505 board, which you can sometimes buy cheaper from 3-Com than from Apollo. Without the Apollo boot ROM you can't boot it diskless over the ethernet but it runs after it's been booted. ** ftpd.tar.Z A version of ftpd that supports anonymous ftp. ** imake.tar.Z imake seems to have been left out of sr10.2 and 10.3. ** luids.tar.Z A program to list uids (object, type, parent, user, group, org) associated with an object. ** morse.tar.Z Send morse code on your node. ** ost, ost.ps.Z "An Extensible I/O System," Jim Rees, Paul H. Levine, Nathaniel Mishkin, Paul J. Leach. Presented at Summer 1986 Usenix Conference, Atlanta, Georgia. Describes Extensible Streams and the Open Systems Toolkit used to implement it. ASCII and postscript versions of this paper are in 'ost' and 'ost.ps.Z' respectively. Get the postscript version if you can, the ascii one is missing the figures and has other formatting anomalies. ** pd-progs A list of public domain programs from comp.sources.unix that should run on your Apollo. This list is from sr10.1 so may be a little out of date. ** printing How to get your printer to work. ** tar.tar.Z Public domain tar program written by John Gilmore, with mods by me for the Apollo. Works much better than the badly broken Domain/OS tar. ** tn3270.tar.Z A binary-only tn3270, with pointers to the source. No mods needed to run it on your Apollo, but it's a pain to compile so here it is. ** tvtwm.tar.Z A virtual-desktop version of Tom's Window Manager (twm). ** v2.tar.Z The ever-popular v2 type manager (see /domain_examples/streams/v2). This is the latest version by the original author. It is improved over the one released by Apollo: Better error reporting Works with long names Works with cc and ld binaries stored remotely Server runs on latest release of Sun OS This version does not contain support for chmod/chown, which requires the unreleased attributes and protection traits. ** x11r4.tar.Z A binary-only x11r4 shared client library. Yes, you can run r4 clients with your r3 share-mode server. Contains pointers to source and instructions for making your own shared libraries. ** x11r4p.tar.Z dn10000 version of the x11r4 shared client library. This was sent to me without any documentation so I don't know much about it. Contact terje@lys.uio.no (terje johnsen) for more information. ** xps.tar.Z A postscript veiwer, binary only with pointers to source.
