We can send mail through the sendmessages but we can't read new mails from the messages or cui. I tried to change something in the AndrewSetup file or preferences files, such as MailboxDir and MailboxFile, but all in vain. Could anyone tell me how to fix it? In fact, I 've tried to install AMDS and WP but resulted errors. It is about lack of some include files, such as bt.h or something ( I can't really remember). The point is, is it possible to install AMDS and WP without AFS?

If it says something about "set hold in .mailrc" then you need to create a .mailrc file in your home directory and put the following line in it: unset hold There's a long story behind this, but if it is your problem, basically it is necessary because of the way your site has configured Berkeley mail.

It provides a dynamically-loadable object-oriented environment wherein objects can be embedded in one-another. Thus, one could use our 'generic-object' editor (ez) to edit text that, in addition to containing multiple fonts, contains embedded raster images, spreadsheets, drawing editors, equations, simple animations, etc.. These embedded objects could themselves contain other objects, including text. With the toolkit, programmers can create new objects that can be embedded as easily as those that come with the system. Many objects, including those mentioned above, along with a help system, a system monitoring tool (console), an editor based shell interface (typescript), and support for printing multi-media documents, are included in the release, making it useful to programmers and non-programmers alike. The Andrew Message System(AMS) provides a multi-media interface to mail and bulletin-boards. AMS contains many advanced features including authentication, return receipts, automatic sorting of mail, vote collection and tabulation, enclosures, audit trails of related messages, and subscription management. It also provides a variety of interfaces that support ttys and low-function personal computers in addition to the high-function workstations. The ODA Tool Kit provides low level support for multi-media documents represented using the standard: ISO 8613 "Office Document Architecture". } This release of Andrew contains hundreds of bug fixes, updates and improvements in both code and documentation. They also contains a variety of new facilities. The major differences are: \leftindent{ - File names and code have been reworked to support System V Unix. - The class system has been reorganized to allow easier porting to new systems. (Programs for updating old ATK source code to use the new file names and class conventions are included) } New additions include: \leftindent{- A full release of ADEW, a direct-manipulation application builder. - A new embedded language for controlling insets, Ness. - A collection of data visualization insets, such as chart and bush. - Footnotes, tables of contents, indexing and page breaks within text. - A "hyperlink" inset for connecting together files. - Example files from Nathaniel Borenstein's book (see below) on the Andrew Tool Kit. - An improved collection of specialized text editors for C, Modula 2, Modula 3, Pascal and Lisp . - The entire Andrew Message System including the remote message server, a delivery system supporting multiple post office machines, and white pages lookup. - Support for IBM 3117 scanners. - ODA support, including sample translators between ODA and Andrew, from ODA to Interleaf and troff, and general tool kits for ODA and raster applications. } This release contains Andrew materials developed elsewhere, including materials from HP, Apollo, IBM, McDonnell Douglas, Interleaf, Northrop, Wollongong and NYSER. If you have materials you would like us to distribute with ATK, please let us know. We routinely use this software at CMU. As a result, there are numerous places in the system construction process where we assume that various files, programs and machines are available. We attempted to remove all of these dependencies in this release. If you find some CMU dependency that we missed, please let us know. This release has been built on Sun-3s, Sun-4s, Vaxes, PMaxes and HP's AUX. As of when we froze the source for MIT there was a minor bug that interrupted the compile and build on IBM RTs running AOS (BSD Unix) or AIX. This and subsequent patches are currently available as outlined below. This release can be obtained in several ways. The entire X distribution is available via anonymous ftp from the Internet host, expo.lcs.mit.edu (Internet: 18.30.0.212). The sources for ATK, AMS and ODA are located in the "andrew" tree, one of the contributed tool kits. Just the "andrew" tree from the X distribution, as well as the latest patches, is available via anonymous ftp from the Internet host, emsworth.andrew.cmu.edu (Internet:128.2.30.62). Copies of the entire X distribution software can also be obtained, for the nominal X11 distribution charge, by contacting: \leftindent{ MIT Software Distribution Center Technology Licensing Office Room E32-300 77 Massachusetts Avenue Cambridge, MA 02139 USA +1-617-258-8330 }We also distribute the following related materials: \leftindent{Hardcopies of the documentation for ATK and AMS (available now). Nathaniel S. Borenstein's book: \italic{Multimedia Applications Development with the Andrew Toolkit }(Prentice-Hall, available now). ODA Project Book: \italic{Multi-media Document Interchange: ODA and the EXPRES Project }(Springer Verlag, available soon). Introductory video tape: \italic{Welcome to Andrew: An Overview of the Andrew System}\italic{ }(available now). Technical video tape: \italic{The Andrew Project: A Session at the Winter 1988 Usenix Conference}\italic{ }(available now). }More information about these materials is available from: \leftindent{Information Requests Information Technology Center Carnegie Mellon University 4910 Forbes Avenue Pittsburgh, PA 15213-3890 USA phone: +1-412-268-6700 fax: +1-412-268-6787 info-andrew-request@andrew.cmu.edu } We are providing updates to the Andrew software as necessary. These are being distributed as patches (for use with the patch program distributed as part of the X tape). These patches are being put on both expo (in /contrib/andrew/patches) and emsworth (in /patches). In addition, emsworth contains three complete distributions: a compressed tar file of the sources on the X.V11R4 tape, a compressed tar file of the sources with all patches applied, and a complete source tree with all patches applied. Therefore, one can retrieve the desired patch files, the latest version of the software, or the latest version of any specific file. These files can be retrieved by anonymous FTP or by mail. For more information on mail retrieval of information, send a (blank) piece of mail to andrew-service@andrew.cmu.edu The info-andrew unmoderated distribution list contains informal conversations between Andrew users and developers. Send mail to info-andrew-request@andrew.cmu.edu to be added to the Andrew mailing list (or to request any other service that we provide, like hard copy documentation or redistribution of contributed materials). The info-andrew-bugs@andrew.cmu.edu address provides an easy method for reporting bugs in the software to members of the ITC (it is not a public distribution list). There is also a netnews distribution list, called comp.soft-sys.andrew, which is identical to the info-andrew distribution list except that it does not support the multi-media capabilities of info-andrew. Finally, there is an andrew-demos mailing list to which interesting ATK/Messages demos are sometimes posted (you must have AMS running to see the demos). To subscribe, send mail to andrew-demos-request@andrew.cmu.edu. \enddata{text,269932460} \enddata{text822, 63907} \begindata{text822, 73416} Return-path: X-Andrew-Authenticated-as: 0;andrew.cmu.edu;Network-Mail Received: from po9.andrew.cmu.edu via trymail for info-andrew+@andrew.cmu.edu (->+dist+/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/ak99/dists/info-andrew-strip.dl) ID ; Wed, 7 Nov 90 12:56:45 -0500 (EST) Received: from po2.andrew.cmu.edu via qmail ID ; Wed, 7 Nov 90 12:51:50 -0500 (EST) Received: from uunet.uu.net by po2.andrew.cmu.edu (5.54/3.15) id for info-andrew; Wed, 7 Nov 90 12:51:22 EST Received: from saber.com by uunet.uu.net (5.61/1.14) with UUCP id AA26247; Wed, 7 Nov 90 12:51:17 -0500 From: saber.com!wyant@saber.com Received: from saber.saber.com by bowie (4.1/0.99) id AA03912; Wed, 7 Nov 90 12:50:41 EST Received: from riposte.saber.com by saber.saber.com (5.64+/SABER 0.9) id AA04267; Wed, 7 Nov 90 12:49:42 -0500 Received: by riposte (4.0/0.99) id AA03496; Wed, 7 Nov 90 12:49:37 EST Date: Wed, 7 Nov 90 12:49:37 EST Message-Id: <9011071749.AA03496@riposte> To: info-andrew@andrew.cmu.edu, uunet!qt.ipa.fhg.de!mai@uunet.UU.NET Subject: Re: porting atk to VMS ? Cc: henke@qt.ipa.fhg.de The dynamic loading is probably not the hard part of porting to VMS. VMS actually has a callable dynamic loader, in the form of the 'lib_$find_symbol' library call. This call takes an object file name and a symbol name. It loads the object file and returns a pointer to the given symbol (if present). For an example of layer ATK on top of an existing dynamic loader look at the Apollo specific code, which uses the existing Apollo/Domain-OS dynamic loader. My guess as to what will be hardest to do is asynchronous I/O handling (read select). Since, last time I looked, VMS didn't provide a select as part of their C Library, you'll have to dummy up your own (using event flags I guess). The other problems that you encounter will probably have to do with terminal IO (setting PTY characteristics), and differences in signal handling. I don't think its an entirely crazy idea. Did'nt someone at IBM do a trial port to OS/2 ? So in theory it is possible to port away from Unix. -- Geoff Wyant wyant@saber.com \enddata{text822, 73416} \begindata{text822, 75754} Return-path: X-Andrew-Authenticated-as: 0;andrew.cmu.edu;Network-Mail Received: from po5.andrew.cmu.edu via trymail for info-andrew+@andrew.cmu.edu (->+dist+/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/ak99/dists/info-andrew-strip.dl) ID ; Wed, 7 Nov 90 17:57:58 -0500 (EST) Received: from po2.andrew.cmu.edu via qmail ID ; Wed, 7 Nov 90 17:56:18 -0500 (EST) Received: from ibminet.awdpa.ibm.com by po2.andrew.cmu.edu (5.54/3.15) id for info-andrew; Wed, 7 Nov 90 17:55:50 EST Received: by ibminet.awdpa.ibm.com (5.61/1.14) id AA03636; Wed, 7 Nov 90 14:55:36 -0800 Received: from neon.awdpa.ibm.com by ibmpa.awdpa.ibm.com (5.61/1.15) id AA07614; Wed, 7 Nov 90 14:53:13 -0800 Received: by neon.awdpa.ibm.com (5.61/1.14) id AA05088; Wed, 7 Nov 90 14:53:05 -0800 From: marc@ibmpa.awdpa.ibm.com (Marc Pawliger) Message-Id: <9011072253.AA05088@neon.awdpa.ibm.com> Subject: Re: porting atk to VMS To: info-andrew@andrew.cmu.edu Date: Wed, 7 Nov 90 14:53:03 PST X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.3 PL0] I think there is a unix-type compatibility library for VMS.

VAX-C 3.0 plus the DECShell and VMS connection (UCX...something or other), which in it's most recent form supports select(2) and other Unixisms. 2. VAX-C or GCC with Peter Kay's sockit library which runs over Wally TCP/IP, CMU-TEK TCP/IP, and maybe another (not, currently, Multinet). I dunno about the former, but the latter implements only enough of the functionality of sockets to support the implementation of basic TCP/IP services. The full functionality of the socket library is a bit more difficult in VMS, because of VMSs way of handling asynchronous IO, so that any socket emulation is going to be targeted at specific applications. The better approach would be to use QIOs, but that means changing a good deal of code. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see someone do it. But we decided that it would make more sense to wait for all of our applications to migrate to UNIX, and then trash VMS, then try to "fix" VMS.

We told them awhile back (before patch 1) and I've never seen anything come of it. The problem with their code is that they start a socket on the machine. When you type 'help' again, it goes to the same help window rather than opening a new window - that's their feature. The misfeature is that you can only have one help socket per machine - it isn't per user but per machine. What they should do is incorporate the user's id into the socket name. Ah, instead of you sending them a note, I'll just cc them on this one. - Anthony \enddata{text,269529480} \enddata{text822, 95570} \begindata{text822, 98309} Return-path: X-Andrew-Authenticated-as: 91;andrew.cmu.edu;Tom Neuendorffer Received: from dublin.andrew.cmu.edu via trymail for info-andrew+@andrew.cmu.edu (->+dist+/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/ak99/dists/info-andrew-nostrip.dl) ID ; Thu, 8 Nov 1990 14:54:31 -0500 (EST) Received: from dublin.andrew.cmu.edu via qmail ID ; Thu, 8 Nov 1990 14:52:23 -0500 (EST) Received: from Messages.7.14.N.CUILIB.3.45.SNAP.NOT.LINKED.dublin.andrew.cmu.edu.rt.r3 via MS.5.6.dublin.andrew.cmu.edu.rt_r3; Thu, 8 Nov 1990 14:52:21 -0500 (EST) Message-ID: Date: Thu, 8 Nov 1990 14:52:21 -0500 (EST) From: Tom Neuendorffer X-Andrew-Message-Size: 3117+0 Content-Type: X-BE2; 12 If-Type-Unsupported: send To: Info-Andrew , Juergen Henke Subject: Re: 8-bit characters, how to use ? In-Reply-To: References: \begindata{text,270363348} \textdsversion{12} \template{messages} Many people reading Christer's reply may wonder why they didn't see the advertised umlaut's. As he mentioned, we don't currently have a good solution for those reading unformatted mail . But if you normally get formatted mail and are having problems, the following should help you fix things up. If the second letter in J\^{|}rgen appears as an u-umlaut, you are in good shape, ignore this message. If it appears as a vertical bar (J|rgen), then you are running a fairly old version of ATK. If you expose styles, you will note an undefined style around the bar with the name '@' (i.e. \\@\{|\}). This is how we specified that the high-bit should be turned on. It is backward compatible in that if this file is rewritten, the old ATK maintains the information. Patches are available to upgrade you to a more recent version; see the recent post by Susan (\italic{Re: What is andrew (CMU, I know that!) ?}). If it appears as a hex number ( J\\374rgen), this indicates that you have the right version of ATK, but are using the wrong fonts. If you have all of the fonts that came with that X11.R4 distribution from MIT, this can be fixed by installing the non-andrew font alias file as either the standard font alias file for your system, or for yourself on an individual basis. To make it standard for your system, just copy /xmkfontd/non-andrew.fonts.alias to $ANDREWDIR/X11fonts/fonts.alias, and either restart x or run' xset fp rehash'. Once installed and working, you will be able to delete the cou* hel* and tim* font files from $ANDREWDIR/X11fonts, since they will be replaced by their ISO counterparts from the R4 distribution. I would recommend that all sites that expect to use this feature install this alias file. We will try to get something put in the next patch that will set this up automatically according to a site.mcr file variable. To install it on an individual basis, do something like \leftindent{mkdir ~/myxfonts mkfontdir ~/myxfonts cp ANDREW_SOURCE_DIR/xmkfontd/non-andrew.fonts.alias ~/myxfonts/fonts.alias xset +fp ~/myxfonts xset fp rehash }The xset +fp call can be added to your .xinitrc file to add the directory when you start up X. Note: Once this alias file is installed, users will note greater space between lines of text in ez, messages, etc. This is not a bug, it simply reflects the fact that the height of these fonts has to be greater, in order to allow room for accents over capital letters. At this point, you should hopefully be able to view files containing ISO characters. For help in entering these characters, see the help file on cpchar (run \italic{help cpchar}). Other information is given in my '\italic{ATK + 8859 = Multi-lingual Text and Mail}' paper in the recent EUUG (now Europen) proceedings. While I am at it, I would like to that Rob Ryan for all of his work in getting the ISO stuff together. Thanks Rob! If you have more problems or questions, please let us know.

For an example of layer ATK on top >of an existing dynamic loader look at the Apollo specific code, which >uses the existing Apollo/Domain-OS dynamic loader. Or the IBM RISC System/6000 dynamic loader, which uses the existing AIX 3.1 dynamic loader. Bear in mind, though, that both those schemes depend on the ability to mark a particular symbol in the dynamically loaded file as "distinguished" by making it the "entry point symbol"; I don't know if the VMS dynamic loader has this facility, but the SunOS 4.1/System V Release 4 dynamic loader does *not*, as far as I know, so you may have to look up that symbol explicitly. The way that seemed to work in my cobbled-up prototype for SunOS 4.1/S5R4 is to do: /* * Construct name of GetClassInfo symbol from the package name * by stripping off the suffix and appending "__GetClassInfo". * You can't get the entry point value from a shareable object * from the "dl*()" routines, which is why we have to do this * stuff. * We strip off the suffix because "doindex", curse its soul, * hands us the last component of the name of the *file* as * the package name, suffix and all. */ (void) strcpy(epname, name); p = strrchr(epname, '.'); if (p == NULL) p = epname + strlen(epname); (void) strcpy(p, "__GetClassInfo"); to construct the name of the symbol in question. "name" is the second argument to "doload". The "path" (fifth) argument is the actual pathname of the file to be loaded. Note also that you will have to ensure that some symbols in the "class" loader code are accessible to the dynamic loader, as the dynamically-loaded object may refer to them (e.g., "class_RoutineStruct"). This appears to require varying amounts of hackery on Domain/OS and AIX 3.1, and also requires hackery in SunOS 4.1/S5R4: in Domain/OS, "doload()" explicilty calls the loader to add them to the Known Global Table; in AIX 3.1, the "class" loader ".o" files are linked together into a single ".o" file and the linker is explicitly told to export them; in SunOS 4.1 and (probably) S5R4, the best or maybe even only way to do so is to make "libclass.a" into a *shared* library. (No, the prototype doesn't really "work" - I hand-built pieces of it instead of changing the Imakefiles, and I've only tested it with the stuff in the "overhead/class/testing" directory, not with ATK itself. I've no idea when I'll do anything further on it, and there are some unresolved issues waiting some responses to mail I sent out....) \enddata{text822, 102891} \begindata{text822, 106995} Return-path: X-Andrew-Authenticated-as: 0;andrew.cmu.edu;Network-Mail Received: from po2.andrew.cmu.edu via trymail ID ; Thu, 8 Nov 90 20:06:20 -0500 (EST) Received: from northstar2.dartmouth.edu by po2.andrew.cmu.edu (5.54/3.15) id ; Thu, 8 Nov 90 17:30:48 EST Received: by northstar2.dartmouth.edu (5.61D1/4.1) id AA12496; Thu, 8 Nov 90 17:30:21 -0500 Received: from Messages.7.14.N.CUILIB.3.45.SNAP.NOT.LINKED.northstar2.rt.r3 via MS.5.6.northstar2.rt_r3; Thu, 8 Nov 90 17:30:19 -0500 (EST) Message-Id: Date: Thu, 8 Nov 90 17:30:19 -0500 (EST) From: Anthony Edwards X-Andrew-Message-Size: 113+0 Content-Type: X-BE2; 12 If-Type-Unsupported: alter To: susan+@andrew.cmu.edu Subject: Re: bug in help (ATK) In-Reply-To: <0bCPD3600VtpEZ7mZr@andrew.cmu.edu> References: , <0bCPD3600VtpEZ7mZr@andrew.cmu.edu> \begindata{text,269529480} \textdsversion{12} \template{default} \define{global attr:[FontSize ConstantFontSize Point 12]} \define{itemize menu:[Region~4,Itemize~31] attr:[LeftMargin LeftMargin Inch 32768]} \define{enumerate menu:[Region~4,Enumerate~30] attr:[LeftMargin LeftMargin Inch 32768]} \define{programexample menu:[Region~4,ProgramExample~13] attr:[LeftMargin LeftMargin Inch 32768] attr:[Justification LeftJustified Point 0] attr:[FontFace FixedFace Int Set] attr:[FontFamily AndyType Int 0]} \define{excerptedcaption attr:[LeftMargin LeftMargin Inch 32768] attr:[RightMargin RightMargin Inch 32768] attr:[FontFace Bold Int Set] attr:[FontFace Italic Int Set]} \define{notetotypesetter menu:[Region~4,NoteToTypesetter~61] attr:[Flags PassThru Int Set]} \define{literal menu:[Region~4,Literal~62] attr:[Flags PassThru Int Set]} Ah, Good!

I had a look at it but it doesn't seem trivial to enhance it the way I wanted. What I had in mind was to use the compchar character table which allows for "customary local replacements". Preferably using the \italic{ATKToASCII} function in \italic{textaux/compchar.c}, but it doesn't seem as if unscribe.c was a part of the object-oriented stuff in ATK, so I'm very unsure how to do it in a proper way. It can of course be done as a "hack", but I feel that's a bit dangerous if e.g the \italic{lib/compchar/comps} format changes. Regarding the way conversions should be done, there are usually many ways of doing this, even within a country, institution, group etc. So the problem isn't trivial, especially not for a mail gateway which does the unformatting. E.g. mail from Sweden containing \^{e}, \^{d}, \^{v} and even \^{|} should probably be replaced with \}, \{ | and u, but if the letter came from Germany, maybe the replacements should be (there's no \^{e} in germany) , ae, oe and ue respectively. Converting the other way round is definitely non-trivial, epecially if the latter replacements are used. In my opinion, the only thing that really helps for the (nearest) future is an\bold{ 8-bit extension to RFC822} which would make it "legal" to write mailers which support 8 bit mail transparently.

CC: Info-Andrew In-Reply-To: References: , \begindata{text,18888088} \textdsversion{12} \template{messages} Indeed, unscribe.c is not part of ATK at all, but has been a wart on the side. It is used by several non-ATK programs (the AMS message server, AMDS, CUI, VUI) that don't need the overhead (distribution-time, build-time, and execution-time) of getting involved in dynamic loading. Fortunately, unscribe makes no pretensions at being able to invert its transformations. It does enough interpretations that doing so would be impossible. Thus, a run through UnScribe is a known way to lose information. As you suggest, the issue for a mail gateway is non-trivial, and the reason is the same reason that the ``customary local replacements'' are important. Does 8-bit RFC822 mail really solve any problems? What are recipients in Germany supposed to do with Swedish \^{e}, since their displays can't handle it? What are they supposed to do with upside-down question marks (\^{?})? We would always have the problem of the ``local extensions,'' no?

I believe that the next Andrew patch will make this ?S to conform to the documentation, or else will change the documentation to use ?C to conform to the implementation. The systype value is the one selected at compile time, generally from the installed system.h file. It could be overridden (with a compiler warning) only if that file (\{andrew\}/overhead/util/lib/config.c) includes any AFS .h files that override the SYS_NAME or OPSYSNAME definitions. As it happens, config.c never includes any such files. The malloc(2) call on line 144 of config.c (storing into ``envar'') represents a storage leak: the space allocated is never freed or reused. There should be a simple ``free(envar)'' after the call to getenv(envar).

The preferences help page says there is a preference "Duplex" to enable processing for duplex printers. There was no support in txttroff.c for this preference. Instead duplex print processing was enabled by default. At mit we needed to have Simplex printing to be the default and an easy way to switch between them that did not involve users resorting to troff. The following patch to txttroff.c enables it to conform to the documented printing procedure: If the Duplex preference is true, the initial troff output sets the number register DP to be 0 (which enables recto/verso headers and footers). If the Duplex preference is false, DP is 1 which sets up simplex printing. Additionally, the following has been done which goes beyond the spec: 1. Following the convention of controlling if the table of Contents is printed, there is a #define DUPLEXBYDEFAULT FALSE which is the hard-coded fallback if now preference is set. 2.

I believe that it accepts the ``-f'' command-line option, though, to treat the final target as a file name rather than as a directory name.

These reprints have awoken my curiosity well enough to bother you another time. In your articles the MIT X-11 tape is mentioned as the main distribution source for the Andrew Message System. I wonder how to get this tape (or the Andrew Message System, which would do also). Probably I should go to someone at MIT but I don't know anyone up there. Besides, we at Digital Eindhoven are working mainly with VAXstations 3100 running VMS and DECwindows (the Digital implementation of X-11) and have got a system manager who hates U*IX, so it is very well possible that AMS won't work at all (I suppose a VMS version is not available). Could you please give some hints about the applicability of AMS in our environment (only for testing purposes, especially of the voting mechanism) and a contact at MIT for a possible purchasing of the X-11 tape?

Your ~/.AMS_aliases file can contain indications of what kinds of formatting a given recipient needs; I think that the help file for this is DESTDIR/help/msalses.help. As for removing old mail from folders (presumably public folders), you can use the ``epoch'' command in CUI for this. Check the CUI help files.

The separate files are stored in ~/Mailbox. From there, they are incorporated into your mail folders -- by default, they go into your "mali" folder, but a FLAMES program (.AMS.flames) can direct them elsewhere or respond to them automatically.) The "eatmail" program can be used to burst aport /usr/spool/mail format files into separate files as in a Mailbox directory. This is not needed for normal mail delivery, but the separate eatmail program is useful in certain circumstances (e.g. when your spool file is on another machine, and you just want to rsh a small program). In general, however, there are lots of ways to get mail fed into messages; you'll have to ask a more specific question to get more information, I'm afraid. Much of what you're looking for is probably buried in the help files. For example, to switch off multimedia for selected recipients, you can put certain lines in your .AMS_aliases file, e.g.: $forceformat Bill Cattey $forceformat wdc@athena.mit.edu $forcetrust @andrew.cmu.edu $forcetrust @andrew.cmu.edu> Type "help ms-aliases" for more information.

If I ez a file with a certain zip in it, it gets about half-way through displaying the zip before it crashes. From this, I conjecture that the code is getting dynamically loaded just fine, but there's a bug in zipview that is not manifest on other machines. If I start with a fresh zip inset, it seems to work for a while and then crash. Has anyone else tried using zip on a Decstation 3100 or 5000? Or does it work fine for everyone else but not for me? For anyone interested in investigating, I will send the offending zip inset on request.

This I ran by setting the AMSMailCollectionCommand preference to rsh it, but I found this to be slow (because of the rsh).

Each link button would be a C file in the directory. That way, when I wanted to edit a file, all I needed to do was hit the button. It works great until I made a mistake: I created a link inset in one of the slots and then decided not to use it. The normal way to clear stuff from a table cell is to hit back space. In EZ, when I hit backspace over an inset, I get a question asking whether I really want to delete that inset or not. In table, I get a core dump. I don't think that's desirable. I'm sure this is a minor bug that just needed to be pointed out to the ITC - you probably just need to check to see if an inset is inside of the cell and treat it specially. - \underline{Anthony} \enddata{text,1126232} \enddata{text822, 261141} \begindata{text822, 264375} X-Andrew-Authenticated-As: 469;andrew.cmu.edu;Craig F.

AMDS is not the inter-machine transport agent that sendmail is. AMDS is, rather, a local mail delivery system, with a potentially large definition of ``local'': all users of an AFS cell, or even all users of all the connected, cooperating AFS cells. AMDS is traditionally run alongside long-haul, SMTP-based transport agents such as sendmail; AMDS does the local delivery, and sendmail does the rest. I'm afraid that you may have a misunderstanding of what AMDS would buy you if you're not using AFS. I'm sure that you can get it to work on a single machine, but I'm not sure that it offers anything that would make it worth the bother of maintaining it. Now, it has features like distribution lists, local WP lookups, and so forth, but it's a pretty big system to install. I'm sorry if your work has resulted from a misunderstanding. /etc/queuemail is by no means a sendmail replacement. Generally, AMDS drops off long-haul mail by piping into the OldSendmailProgram (defaulted to /etc/oldsendmail), and BSD sendmail drops off local mail to AMDS by piping into /etc/queuemail. On a single machine, you'd need to start your sendmail daemon and also start the AMDS daemons (by invoking what's created from the \{andrew\}/overhead/pobbconf/rc.local.pobb file).

The only problem is that there is no cursor in the new ez window. If I hit cursor keys, they are ignored. I presume my keystrokes are being directed to the link inset. However, in the new window I don't have a link inset button - just raw ascii text in a textview inset. All it takes is a mouse click in that window to activate the keystrokes. I'd like to make the suggestion that when the link inset launches its secondary window, it activates whatever inset is in that window (or at the top). Certainly I find it annoying in my context of editing, but I think it's a misfeature for help, too. Let's face it, most help files are longer than a window size. The most natural thing for me is to go for the cursor keys (page down particularly) to see more text. I can't do that if the window is launched by a link inset button; not unless I click in it first. - \underline{Anthony} \enddata{text,1126232} \enddata{text822, 271184} \begindata{text822, 274687} Return-path: X-Andrew-Authenticated-as: 0;andrew.cmu.edu;Network-Mail Received: from po5.andrew.cmu.edu via trymail for info-andrew+@andrew.cmu.edu (->+dist+/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/ak99/dists/info-andrew-nostrip.dl) ID ; Tue, 27 Nov 90 19:24:13 -0500 (EST) Received: from po3.andrew.cmu.edu via qmail ID ; Tue, 27 Nov 90 19:22:27 -0500 (EST) Received: from sun2.nsfnet-relay.ac.uk by po3.andrew.cmu.edu (5.54/3.15) id ; Tue, 27 Nov 90 15:07:02 EST Received: from vax.nsfnet-relay.ac.uk by sun2.nsfnet-relay.ac.uk with SMTP inbound id <7617-23@sun2.nsfnet-relay.ac.uk>; Tue, 27 Nov 1990 19:55:55 +0000 Received: from sun2.nsfnet-relay.ac.uk by vax.NSFnet-Relay.AC.UK via Janet with NIFTP id aa18203; 27 Nov 90 18:49 GMT Message-Id: <19699.9011252119@achilles.doc.ic.ac.uk> Received: from localhost by achilles.doc.ic.ac.uk; Sun, 25 Nov 90 21:19:27 GMT To: info-andrew+@andrew.cmu.edu Cc: njw@doc.imperial.ac.uk Subject: Compiling ATK 6 (?) on HPUX with gcc...

After hacking this about, I then get into difficulties with it making its "transitive closure awk script" (Gawd!) The awk script churned for 3 hours (I later found out), but produced no output. HoHum. So. Is it even feasible to try this? Or does the dynamic loading/linking *need* to run "native"? If I cannot use gcc to build, then how do I debug ATK programs? I have been going under the assumption that the standard debuggers for hpux do not understand the dynamic loading of Andrew. ([Shame] yes, I need a post-mortem debugger to test my programs... they don't *ALL* work perfectly first time :-) Nick, Enjoying the wonders of hpux.... ______________________________________________________________________________ Nick Williams. njw@doc.ic.ac.uk ...

That way, I can immediately start editing with the keyboard rather than clicking the mouse in the window (thereby telling EZ to send all character events to textview).

You can omit these directories under your andrew distribution: overhead/index overhead/class overhead/conv overhead/fonts overhead/xicons overhead/cmenu atk atkams contrib (oda, odatrans) xmkfontd helpindex helpaliases There could, in principle, be an ATK_ENV option in the top-level system.h that controlled these directories.

You *probably* don't need it, however. It has a very specialized utility -- it bursts apart Berekely-format mail files into AMS-format individual files. It is most useful, therefore, for two circumstances: 1. Converting Berkeley mail files into AMS folders. (It's only a part of this job -- once you burst the mail apart into an AMS directory, you still have to use CUI to reconstruct that directory's index file.) 2. Moving new mail from /usr/spool/mail/uid into separate files in ~uid/Mailbox. In general, the AMS programs do this automatically, and eatmail is not needed. However, if your spool file is on a machine where AMS doesn't run, your home directory is on NFS, and you mostly work on a machine where AMS does run, you can use eatmail on the spool machine to convert your new mail into a format and location where AMS can get at it directly, that's all. Hope that helps. -- Nathaniel \enddata{text822, 304912} \begindata{text822, 307320} Return-path: X-Andrew-Authenticated-as: 0;andrew.cmu.edu;Network-Mail Received: from po9.andrew.cmu.edu via trymail for info-andrew+@andrew.cmu.edu (->+dist+/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/ak99/dists/info-andrew-nostrip.dl) ID ; Thu, 29 Nov 90 20:34:41 -0500 (EST) Received: from po2.andrew.cmu.edu via qmail ID ; Thu, 29 Nov 90 20:30:39 -0500 (EST) Received: from ucbvax.Berkeley.EDU by po2.andrew.cmu.edu (5.54/3.15) id for info-andrew; Thu, 29 Nov 90 20:29:35 EST Received: by ucbvax.Berkeley.EDU (5.63/1.42) id AA20442; Thu, 29 Nov 90 17:15:08 -0800 Received: from USENET by ucbvax.Berkeley.EDU with netnews for info-andrew@andrew.cmu.edu (info-andrew@andrew.cmu.edu) (contact usenet@ucbvax.Berkeley.EDU if you have questions) Date: 29 Nov 90 22:28:13 GMT From: meaddata!gregs@uunet.uu.net (Greg Smith) Organization: Mead Data Central, Dayton OH Subject: Andrew system memory problem Message-Id: <2069@meaddata.meaddata.com> Sender: info-andrew-request@andrew.cmu.edu To: info-andrew@andrew.cmu.edu I use the Andrew console and Ez on a daily basis. I have a Sun3-80 with the standard 8 meg of memory and 12 meg of swap space. When I was using the MocaChip console my computer would run out of memory overnight and blow out of an xlock as well as X itself. I'm positive the console was the culprit. A process list however, did not show console as having any huge amount of memory allocated. Has anyone else had this problem with any Andrew consoles ? I use the Antique console now and have another smaller and less annoying problem. The computer slowly loses memory. It takes about a week to get to be a problem and quiting and restarting X windows will solve it. I can't exactly blame this problem on the Andrew software but from my earlier experience I'm reluctant not to look there first. Suggestions ?

I guess I agree with this on a visual level -- the buttons & scroll bars are much prettier in Motif than Andrew -- but I'm not so sure on the semantic/active control level. In particular, I find it hard to imagine how anyone can prefer Motif menus to Andrew menus. For such reasons, I hope that the Motif-ization of Andrew can be done in components. For example, I'd like to be able to say (via preferences, presumably) that I want Motif-style buttons & maybe scroll bars, but definitely Andrew-style menus. (For the record, the Andrew menus were the result of countless iterations and extensive user testing. I have no idea what went into Motif's menu design, but I have to think it was unduly influenced by a desire to "compete with Macintosh" on its own terms.\ \enddata{text,2206648} \enddata{text822, 309585} \begindata{text822, 312481} Return-path: X-Andrew-Authenticated-as: 0;andrew.cmu.edu;Network-Mail Received: from po9.andrew.cmu.edu via trymail for info-andrew+@andrew.cmu.edu (->+dist+/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/ak99/dists/info-andrew-nostrip.dl) ID ; Fri, 30 Nov 90 06:48:58 -0500 (EST) Received: from po3.andrew.cmu.edu via qmail ID ; Fri, 30 Nov 90 06:47:21 -0500 (EST) Received: from birk.cs.chalmers.se by po3.andrew.cmu.edu (5.54/3.15) id ; Fri, 30 Nov 90 04:23:11 EST Received: by birk.cs.chalmers.se id AA26098; Fri, 30 Nov 90 10:21:57 +0100 Received: from Messages.7.14.N.CUILIB.3.45.SNAP.NOT.LINKED.birk.sun3.4 via MS.5.6.birk.sun3_4; Fri, 30 Nov 1990 10:21:54 +0100 (MET) Message-Id: Date: Fri, 30 Nov 1990 10:21:54 +0100 (MET) From: Christer Bernerus X-Andrew-Message-Size: 1074+0 Content-Type: X-BE2; 12 If-Type-Unsupported: send To: info-andrew@andrew.cmu.edu Subject: Andrew Menus, (Was: Re: Motif) In-Reply-To: References: <4bIx7l618X_CQqiF0a@prefect.watson.ibm.com>, <332@srchtec.UUCP>, , \begindata{text,1871316} \textdsversion{12} \template{default} \define{global attr:[FontSize ConstantFontSize Point 12]} \define{itemize menu:[Region~4,Itemize~31] attr:[LeftMargin LeftMargin Inch 32768]} \define{enumerate menu:[Region~4,Enumerate~30] attr:[LeftMargin LeftMargin Inch 32768]} \define{programexample menu:[Region~4,ProgramExample~13] attr:[LeftMargin LeftMargin Inch 32768] attr:[Justification LeftJustified Point 0] attr:[FontFace FixedFace Int Set] attr:[FontFamily AndyType Int 0]} \define{excerptedcaption attr:[LeftMargin LeftMargin Inch 32768] attr:[RightMargin RightMargin Inch 32768] attr:[FontFace Bold Int Set] attr:[FontFace Italic Int Set]} \define{notetotypesetter menu:[Region~4,NoteToTypesetter~61] attr:[Flags PassThru Int Set]} \define{literal menu:[Region~4,Literal~62] attr:[Flags PassThru Int Set]} \excerptedcaption{Excerpts from info-andrew: 29-Nov-90 Re: Motif Nathaniel Borenstein@thu (1036+0)} \quotation{ In particular, I find it hard to imagine how anyone can prefer Motif menus to Andrew menus. }OK, since this question has been brought up ... One thing I find better about Motif (and Macintosh) menus are the possibility of\italic{ learning the keybindings} by looking at the menus. I will of course not learn all keybindings this way, but I think I'll be able to speed up my usage of Andrew quite a bit if I at least learn the keybindings that have menus.

Although I have seen documentation over info-andrew that explains how to make the cards less sensitive, it has never worked for me. Back in the old days of 'wm' (do we call it BE1 now?), I could move my mouse to a non-front menu card and move my mouse \italic{all over that card}, without any other card popping up. Only if I moved the mouse off the card onto another card would the other card pop up. Now, each card is logically just the left quarter inch. I can't stand that. I'm dexterous enough to adjust, but I've always liked allowing my mouse to roam a whole menu card (that's not the front card). - \underline{Anthony} \enddata{text,2264600} \enddata{text822, 315994} \begindata{text822, 319465} Return-path: X-Andrew-Authenticated-as: 0;andrew.cmu.edu;Network-Mail Received: from po10.andrew.cmu.edu via trymail for info-andrew+@andrew.cmu.edu (->+dist+/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/ak99/dists/info-andrew-nostrip.dl) ID ; Fri, 30 Nov 90 09:38:10 -0500 (EST) Received: from po3.andrew.cmu.edu via qmail ID ; Fri, 30 Nov 90 09:31:06 -0500 (EST) Received: from thumper.bellcore.com by po3.andrew.cmu.edu (5.54/3.15) id for info-andrew; Fri, 30 Nov 90 09:29:23 EST Received: from greenbush.bellcore.com by thumper.bellcore.com (4.1/4.7) id for info-andrew@andrew.cmu.edu; Fri, 30 Nov 90 09:29:15 EST Received: by greenbush.bellcore.com (4.12/4.7) id AA02559; Fri, 30 Nov 90 09:31:21 est Received: from Messages.7.14.N.CUILIB.3.45.SNAP.NOT.LINKED.greenbush.mouseclub.sun4.40 via MS.5.6.greenbush.mouseclub.sun4_40; Fri, 30 Nov 1990 09:31:16 -0500 (EST) Message-Id: Date: Fri, 30 Nov 1990 09:31:16 -0500 (EST) From: Nathaniel Borenstein To: info-andrew@andrew.cmu.edu Subject: Re: Andrew system memory problem In-Reply-To: <2069@meaddata.meaddata.com> References: <2069@meaddata.meaddata.com> Does the problem ever happen when you're not using xlock?

But one more detail needs to be understood: Just executing the xrdb command in the middle of my X session isn't good enough. The xrdb command needs to be executed before the first ATK application starts up. Aparently the cmenu code in only reads its resources once - I had ATK stuff running, I typed the xrdb, I launched a new ATK program: I saw no change; exiting X and starting up again made it work. Again, thanks for the tip.

I'd *love* to use console to consolidate some things on my display, but I've never gotten the text logs to come up with a scrollbar, despite the fact that the documentation says that one will appear when the log gets "big enough". >I use the Antique console >the startup messages (for version numbers) >(Version 7.0, ATK 14.2); please wait... You're certainly running ooooold stuff here. The first clue is that you mentioned the Antique console -- many of the console files (including the Beak console (sniff sniff)) seem to have disappeared between the x11r3 and x11r4 releases (I'm not sure on the ATK version numbers involved), so the fact that you've got that one is suspicious. I ran my console (x11r4, pl7), and it tells me Version 7.6, ATK 15.1), which confirms it. I'd suggest that you get the base tree from the x11r4 distribution, apply all 7 (soon to be 8) patches, and rebuild. If you're running SunOS 4.0.3, this'll build just fine. If you're running 4.1, you'll probably want to wait for patch 8. -- \enddata{text822, 335526}
