Subject: New on the SHAKSPER Fileserver: DISCUSS INDEX_7
In May I explained that after we migrated SHAKSPER from its mainframe (VM)
platform at the University of Toronto to its Unix platform at Bowie State, I
discovered that the Unix version did not currently support all of the functions
to which we had been accustomed. Perhaps, the most lamentable loss was the
Database Function. The Database Function enabled members to search past logs
of discussions by key words. The upcoming revision of the LISTSERV software,
due in late 1996, is supposed to port this and other functions to the Unix
version.
I also recommended that members use the Discussion Indexes to assist in
locating discussions of past topics until the Database Function is available in
Unix LISTSERV. The Discussion Indexes are indexes of past discussions by
year. month, and digest number (Sample below). Today, DISCUSS INDEX_7, the
index of discussions for 1996, is available with entries from January 1996
through May 1996. I will try to keep this index update by the month.
Now, indexes of all SHAKSPER digests from 1990 through May 1996 are on the
Fileserver:
DISCUSS INDEX_1 1990
DISCUSS INDEX_2 1991
DISCUSS INDEX_3 1992
DISCUSS INDEX_4 1993
DISCUSS INDEX_5 1994
DISCUSS INDEX_6 1995
DISCUSS INDEX_7 1996
These are large files. If you order them, you may wish to download them and
search them with a word processor.
To retrieve, for example, "The 1995 Discussion Index", send a one-line mail
message (without a subject line) to
