Welcome to the Comp.Sys.Mac.Programmer Digests!

csmp-v?-index.txt contains a list of every subject in each issue of Volume ?.
csmp-v?-???.txt are the digests.  If the issue you're looking for isn't here,
chances are it's been deleted.  These digests take up a lot of disk space, so
usually only the last 1-2 meg worth can be found here.  The entire collection
is available for anonymous ftp from ftp.cs.uoregon.edu.

These digests are also available via email.  Just send a note saying that you
want to be on the digest mailing list to mkelly@cs.uoregon.edu, and you will
automatically receive each new digest as it is created.

The articles in these digests are taken directly from comp.sys.mac.programmer.
They are not edited; all articles included in this digest are in their original
posted form.  The only articles that are -not- included in these digests are
those which didn't receive any replies (except those that give information
rather than ask a question).  All replies to each article are concatenated
onto the original article in the order in which they were received.  Article
threads are not added to the digests until the last article added to the
thread is at least one month old (this is to ensure that the thread is dead

Issue 25 of the digest contains some binhexed files, which reportedly

I have removed the faulty thread; here is a "clean" digest.

Index to the C.S.M.P. Digests, Volume 3
Thu, 21 Sep 95

The Comp.Sys.Mac.Programmer Digest is moderated by Francois Pottier
(pottier@clipper.ens.fr).
 
The digest is a collection of article threads from the internet newsgroup
comp.sys.mac.programmer.  It is designed for people who read c.s.m.p. semi-
regularly and want an archive of the discussions.  If you don't know what a
newsgroup is, you probably don't have access to it.  Ask your systems
administrator(s) for details.  If you don't have access to news, you may
still be able to post messages to the group by using a mail server like
anon.penet.fi (mail help@anon.penet.fi for more information).
 
Each issue of the digest contains one or more sets of articles (called
threads), with each set corresponding to a 'discussion' of a particular
subject.  The articles are not edited; all articles included in this digest
are in their original posted form (as received by our news server at
nef.ens.fr).  Article threads are not added to the digest until the last
article added to the thread is at least two weeks old (this is to ensure that
the thread is dead before adding it to the digest).  Article threads that
consist of only one message are generally not included in the digest.

The digest is officially distributed by two means, by email and ftp.

If you want to receive the digest by mail, send email to listserv@ens.fr
with no subject and one of the following commands as body:
    help                                Sends you a summary of commands
    subscribe csmp-digest Your Name     Adds you to the mailing list
    signoff csmp-digest                 Removes you from the list
Once you have subscribed, you will automatically receive each new
issue as it is created.

The official ftp info is //ftp.dartmouth.edu/pub/csmp-digest.
Questions related to the ftp site should be directed to
scott.silver@dartmouth.edu.
