ANNOUNCEMENT 92:3
1) Internet Resource Guide .ps entries now have "cut-lines"
This message is being sent to both the PostScript and Plain Text
mailing lists. We have made a change in the way that we send out
PostScript files.
The current distribution of Internet Resource Guide entries brought
complaints by a few users who had trouble printing the PostScript
(.ps) entries. We quickly changed our format to include a "cut-here"
line for section2-2.ps, and promptly got another complaint that we
broke an automatic program for printing the PostScript entries.
The line is:
--------Cut-Here----The-first-line-of-your-file-must-be-%!PS-Adobe-1.0--------
When you receive a PostScript entry, you must remove this line and
everthing that precedes it in the file. Otherwise, your printer will
print the PostScript file as a series of PostScript commands rather
than formatted printing.
The first line of the PostScript file must be:
%!PS-Adobe-1.0
2) Update news.
o We are pleased to report that since we began our update campaign,
in June 1992, we have received updates for 75 of the 113 entries
in the Resource Guide, most of them recent. Twenty-seven updates
have been distributed to the resource-guide mailing lists, and
the other 48 are in the pipeline.
o We have also received four new entries, as well as many
suggestions for entries and requests for templates. To order a
template, send a message to info-server@nnsc.nsf.net, and place
the following text in the body of the message:
request: resource-guide
topic: template
request: end
o We have shortened Subject field of our "announcement" messages by
substituting "AN-92:3" in place of "ANNOUNCEMENT 92-3".
Please send questions and suggestions to resource-guide@nnsc.nsf.net.,
and changes in mailing lists to resource-guide-request@nnsc.nsf.net.
