This archive is an introduction to the 'in development' WPL
programming language. It is designed to give a general idea of what we
are working towards in order to raise developer interest in the project.
The archive is updated nightly and is fidonet file requestable as
'WPL_Intro.lzh' from fidonet#1:1/139.0
As you will note, there are no binaries in this archive. This is
not a beta release, but an information package. If you wish to get involved
with beta testing this new language, you must get access to the WELMAT support
conference. When you are connected, please send me a message indicating
your 'prefered' email method (Fidonet, Internet) as I am trying to maintain
a list of beta testers.
The following files exist in this archive:
readme.intro - This file.
wpl.readme - The general description of the WPL language. This
file is constantly changing as the language expands.
It also contains the beta 'Bugs' and 'TODO' lists.
XferqInstall.doc - Document to explain installation of xferq.library, and
the basics of what it is.
list/wpl.txt - List of files in the WPL support file area.
rexx/fidopoll.rexx - A script that does my fidonet dialing
rexx/uulookup.wplrx - A script that does a lookup in an l.sys file for UUCP.
rexx/uupoll.rexx - A UUCP scheduler script
rexx/wsched.rexx - The script that calls 'fidopoll' and 'uupoll'
rexx/call.rexx - How to dial.
rexx/newlog.rexx - The docs for LogProc, the logging subsystem.
bin/startwsched - Small AmigaDos script I use to launch wsched.rexx
bin/restart - the script I use to launch WPL, LogProc, etc.
bin/call - AmigaDos script used to call 'call.rexx'
bin/startWPL - Small AmigaDos script I use to launch WPL.
wpl/atronx.wpl - The current WPL script running on my own system. While
this isn't the most full featured mailer example, it
gives a general idea of the flow of things.
wpl/roof.wpl - The WPL script from the ROOF system. This gives a
general idea of the features of ROOF and how it is
accomplished. Please contact Robert Williamson at
fidonet#1:167/104 for information on ROOF, and
a complete up-to-date archive. ROOF_WPL.LHA is a file
updated weekly and file requestable from my site.
