-
- Used for
- -------------------------
- NGService actually arose from the number of complaints on the Net
- about NewsGrazer posts, and those who don't want to use NewsGrazer,
- or want to be able to view NewsGrazer postings at home, where they
- don't have enough CNews set up to run NewsGrazer.
-
- It also served the purpose of introducing me to NeXT services, and
- cells in Text Objects.
-
- Also since there is no NewsGrazer for NEXTSTEP Intel, and there
- will not be one made available from NeXT, this will make it possible
- for the Intel users to access the NewsGrazer files easily.
-
-
- Which NeXT release your software was developed under
- ----------------------------------------------------
- NGService was implemented under 2.x, and the only change that was
- needed to get it running under 3.0 was to have Project Builder
- convert the IB.proj file to the new PB.project format, and then
- change one line in the Makefile.preamble...
-
- However when I upgraded to 3.1, and then went to quickly recompile
- a fat version, there were a few things that had to be changed. I
- also spent an hour and cleaned up some things.
