Thanks for uploading those files... the *-fyters thing was interesting, I'd
|
||
always wondered what that really was about. I agree, a big problem they had
|
||
was that it was full o' younger teenagers who didn't really do much but u/d
|
||
stuff all over the place like you said. And as such, they were pretty much
|
||
spit upon by the rest of the telecom scene as wannabes. It was a unique idea
|
||
though, from the guy who started it.
|
||
Glad you enjoy the cDc stuff and the AE. It's not much but at least it's an AE
|
||
(or something close, anyhow...)
|
||
Yeah, I can start putting the new releases out as ShrinkIt archives too.
|
||
That's a good idea, i just didn't know there was demand for it unless somebody
|
||
says something, so thanks.o thanks.
|
||
|
||
Oh yeah, the t-file primer file... i especially liked the points about trying
|
||
to keep files intact and non-edited and encouraging people to date their files.
|
||
Most of the files i run across now are being dated which is good. 'cause the
|
||
systems will continue to be upgraded and technology marches on, blah blah...
|
||
but t-files can conceivably float around forever 'cause data is data. Same old
|
||
40 column upper case file written in '81 on an Apple II+ that ends up on
|
||
somebody's '586 'puter in 1995, ya know. So it's important to date things so
|
||
readers can have an understanding of the context it was written in.
