- Greetings NetHeads,
- Like many of you I used to read every single article in
- this newsgroup but now find that impossible as well as no longer
- being desirable. Now there are only a few articles a day that
- I really want to read. If you get dead-flames as a digest you may
- be interested in this.
-
- The "Reeves Digest Browser" is a hypercard stack which makes it
- easy to navigate through digests. It is for use with Macintosh
- computers. It is called the "Reeves Digest Browser" to
- distinguish it from other Digest Browsers which are around. I've
- tried using some but decided that I ought to write my own.
- It reads text digests into hypercard putting contents information
- into a contents window and each message into its own message
- window. It should work on any digest but has been tested only
- on the homebrew and grateful dead digests.
-
- You can import single digests or multiple digests. Once that's
- done, messages can be shown by clicking on the contents window,
- choosing "read messages", clicking "next" or "previous" message
- buttons, or choosing the message number. Messages can also
- be edited and/or exported to their own files. Complete help is
- available for all buttons and fields by option-clicking on the
- button or field you want to know about. This stack is offered
- as shareware.
-
- It is available by anonymous ftp from
- sierra.stanford.edu
- /pub/homebrew/incoming
- gdead.src.emu.edu
- /pub/gdead/drop-box
- and I have sent it to sumex.stanford.edu but I don't think it
- is available just yet. You can also do a decnet copy from
- essdp1.lanl.gov disk0:[105277.tohome]. Finally you can just
- send me e-mail and I'll mail it to you.
