Pascal, Relational DBMS, WP, Inform. Retr., /usr/group info?
1) Does anyone have address and subscription information about /usr/group?
2) Has anyone done comparisons among the various PASCAL's that run on UNIX,
 as to code size or execution time on standard benchmark programs?  Is there
 a version of the Oregon Software compiler for UNIX and is it good?
3) Are there any user-friendly packages for word processing that run on
 standard CRT types of terminals and yet let you see what you have as you
 go along (i.e. don't use embedded codes like NROFF).
4) Does anyone have experience with relational DBMS under UNIX?  I've been
 using INGRES and it is at least an order of magnitude too slow.  ORACLE
 looks good on paper (except for the price) but I'd like user comments.
 Other packages like MISTRES, SEQUITAR aren't very complete, but if people
 have had good experiences that would be good to know.
5) Does anyone have clustering routines or other packages that relate to
 information retrieval applications?
Thank you for the information!
