to ROY LIPSCOMB re: R/CBBS IN C
|
|
|
|
Well, actually I dug around a bit more and found some C routines
|
|
that do interrupt-driven serial I/O, and I even brought up a comm
|
|
program using 'em and everything was fine.
|
|
The decicison will be whether to do it op-sys independent, i.e. so it
|
|
could be ported to Chinet, or just "get it done on a PC".
|
|
CBBS was down for a few days, and that provides the incentive I need
|
|
to push toward a "C"BBS.
|
|
But with Carpal Tunnel coming on strong, I'm having to find ways to
|
|
spend my time WITHOUT a PC - or spend minimally $2K for a Dragon Systems
|
|
voice system.
|
|
(and I wonder if you can use it while watching TV or listening to the
|
|
stereo!)

to DAVID JOHNSON re: R/PCMANAGE
|
|
|
|
Well, I guess managing a PC's disk space is more a matter of just
|
|
"getting organized" - such as installing new versions on TOP of old ones,
|
|
instead of in a separate dir where you then have both.
|
|
But one problem with that, is that when you install the new version,
|
|
if there are files related to the old one that aren't needed, you don't
|
|
know that, and they just sit around.
|
|
I guess that the answer is just to double your disk space every few
|
|
years. Lets see, from 15M in '82, to about a total of 900M now, I
|
|
should do some calc's - 60 times. Hmmm, in say 10 years. How often do
|
|
you double to get 60 times? Hmmm, need logs. 2^n = 60? n log 2 = log 60?
|
|
n = log 60 / log 2? Comes out to about 6. No, that's not it. Oh, means
|
|
it doubled 6 times, in 10 years, call it 120 months/6 times = 20 months,
|
|
so I gotta double my storage every 20 months? Heh.
|
|
My $1299 520M drive (from about 20 months ago, come to think of it) -
|
|
now goes for, so my dealer says, about $849!
|
|
One of my problems is I like keeping old data around - and DO read it
|
|
to index it with Magellan. SO that screws the "pcmanage" idea.
|
|
Any other thoughts? Anyone else want to jump into this discussion?
