Index of Archive of postings to comp.binaries.psion
This list is taken directly from the Imperial College archive, and has
not been checked for accuracy. Some of the headings are far from
descriptive, but most should give an idea of what is contained within.
All the files are gzipped; once gunzipped they contain the original news
article, which is likely to have a uuencoded file in it. Finally, the
uuencoded file may also need to be unzipped (most likely using
pkunzip)...
PC users will find that WinZip
(which works for all flavours of Windows) will extract the uuencoded
file from the gzipped archive. WinCode is a
Windows program for uuencoding and uudecoding. Once decoded, you should
be left with a usable file (which may be pkzipped - WinZip can deal with
this too).
Most of these programs will find their way onto the Psion archive at
Imperial College (if they haven't already), and you might find it easier
to check there before going through the hoops necessary to extract them
from these links.
Where there is some descriptive text this has been taken from the
article posted co comp.binaries.psion. I make no warranties as
to the merit of these programs, or their compatibility with your hardware.
If you have any problems with anything downloaded from the archive,
please take them up with the author of the program.
This index was last updated on 27 November 1995 - the most recent files
are at the bottom of the list. Where explanatory
text is provided, it is taken from the original post to

The future
As you may have noticed, this index is getting a bit big, and there is
considerable redundancy in it. When I have time, I plan to do the following:
- Remove links to postings where there is a newer version
- Remove links to postings with no real content (i.e. no binary or source)
- Add descriptions where possible (and where not provided in the subject
line of postings)
- Other things, where suggested.
