INFO-CPM Archives Archived
The old (up to midnight or so) correspondence has been moved to
[DARCOM-KA]<MICRO>CPM.ARCHIV;10615 still in ITS mail format.

There are a number of new files in

MC:CPM;

 0   CPMNET JUN81    5 +440  More from Kelley Smith

 14  ONTAPE LIST     0 +337  What migrated to tape

 14  FLS    COM      2  +65  A pipeline program for SQ and USQ
                             Expands ambiguous filenames and
                             passes result via file to named
                             program.

 14  SQ     COM      3  +65  A Huffman file compressor
 14  SQ/USQ DOC      0 +382  Doc for SQ and USQ
 14  SQ/USQ HISTRY   1 +588  Development background
 14  USQ    COM      2 +321  A Huffman File decompressor

SQ, USQ, and FLS were written in BDS-C.  SQ writes out the squeezed
file with a "Q" for the second letter of the extent and also writes
the original filename in the resultant file for USQ to use to rename
the reconstructed version it produces.  Expect an average reduction in
filesize of about 25%.  Sources may be made available as a function of
demand.  (Send requests to INFO-CPM-REQUEST@MC, please.)


PLEASE NOTE: As this list grows, it is best to send queries about
missing files and related complaints to INFO-CPM-REQUEST@MC.  If a
file has been previously announced as being available in MC:CPM; and
doesn't appear to be there, double-check the spelling, then look in
MC:CPM;ONTAPE LIST.  Also check in [DARCOM-KA]<MICRO>.  If it is
listed as being on tape, then get it from the KA.  If it not on tape
and not on the KA, THEN send a note to INFO-CPM-REQUEST@MC.  On the
other hand, if there are files you'd like to see made available from
CPMUG or SIG/M, send a note to INFO-CPM-REQUEST@MC, and we'll see what
we can do to get it for you.
