- ARTICLE:
-
- This archive contains all the FAQs - textfiles containing the most
- frequently asked questions regarding one subject.
-
- These texts can be found on a regular base in the Usenet-group
- comp.answers. Althought this newsgroup does not cover all the FAQs
- available on Usenet, it does include the most importants of them.
-
- As the cover a vast range of subjects it seemed appropriate to copy
- them to this CD to provide a nice archive of often needed answers
- for questions you dared to ask of never even thought about.
-
- I personally like the FAQs for X windows and most unix-related FAQs,
- obviuosly i am taken by them :)
-
- All of these texts are royality free and even intended to be spread
- round the world. Some of them are administrated on regular base by
- competent and involved people and appear each week or twice a month,
- others wont be updated for months due to their slow-changing subjects.
-
- Most authors of FAQs are aware that their text can be out-of-date
- every hour even, but as they do administrate their texts on a private
- base - just to help you (and to help themself keeping to answer questions
- which are questioned over again and again by you :-) don't expect a new
- FAQ every day.
-
- I am sorry that i couldn't sort the texts in a specific manner, but
- most of the filenames are intuitional and selfexplanantory in what they
- content. (You'd guess wheather.data.part1 contains information about where
- to get information about the current wheather - oh joy, oh fun, it's
- right :-)
-
- Have fun.
