- P.S. If you want my smiley list, you can either wait for the book
- (to be published this spring by O'Reilly), or you can FTP it:
-
- My smiley program (containing the largest and most comprehensive
- collection of smileys ever posted) was most recently posted in
- comp.sources.misc, volume 23. See your nearby comp.sources.misc
- archive site to obtain it.
-
- The comp.sources.misc index line:
-
- v23i102 smiley/part01 smiley - smiley server, version 4, Part01/01
