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.
