InfoMagic Standards CD-ROM Set
Summer 1995
These CDs contain a variety of standards documents gathered from a
number of public sources. Every effort has been made to arrange the
files in a meaningful and useful directory structure. Naturally there
is a "misc" directory that contains things that didn't quite fit
anywhere else.
Previous releases of this disc contained an IEEE directory. We were forced
to remove this at the insistance of the IEEE. So much for the widespread
distribution of standards !
The directories on the discs are as follows:
Disc1:
~~~~~~
ansi/ SCSI specs
dos/ DOS tools for untarring and unzipping
inet/ Assorted Internet related material including RFC's, etc.
iso/ Other ISO standards and Drafts
misc/ Things that didn't fit anywhere else
nist/ National Institute of Standards
hyperrfc/ RFC's in HyperText
winsock/ Windows Sockets docs
winsnmp/ Windows SNMP specs.
infostnd/ Installation files for the Browser (see below)
ghost/ Installation files for Ghostscript and Ghostview (see
below)
Disc2:
~~~~~~
ccitt/ 1988 Bluebook and 1992 revisions
1988 1988 material in ASCII, Postscript, and TROFF
1992 1992 (and newer) material in Postscript, ASCII, WordPerfect
and Word-for-Windows format
In the 1988 version of the Bluebook, volume 8, which covers
networking, is only provided in preliminary troff files. These files
are not completely usable as provided, though much of the text formats
correctly. Many of these documents are available in the 1992 versions
in Word for Windows, ASCII, and EPS formats.
The file "files.lst" shows the location and date/size information
for all the files on both discs.
We have provided several applications on the 1st disc. These
include:
1) RFC's in Hypertext. This is a compilation from late
1991 of approximately 250 of the core RFC's. They
are all fully updated as of the creation date (Oct
1991) and fully cross linked. This application uses
version 1.0 of the Microsoft Multimedia Viewer (which
is provided). To install this application run
"setup.exe" from the "hyperrfc" directory.
2) Ghostscript and Ghostview. These two applications
allow postscript files to be viewed under DOS and
Windows and to be printed on non-postscript printers.
They are required to use the included browser (see
below). To install these applications run
"setup.exe" from the "ghost" directory.
3) The InfoMagic Standards Browser. This application
lets you view the CCITT & RFC's directly from the CD.
It supports viewing of the ASCII, Postscript, and
Word-for-Windows versions (assuming you have the
supporting applications). To install the browser run
"setup.exe" from the "infostnd" directory.
