The README and a list of recent uploads follows... Welcome to the minnie Minix archive. It contains all the large postings in comp.os.minix since the release of Minix 1.5. To make it easier for me to maintain this archive, all files are available as they were originally posted in comp.os.minix - for multi-part programs you will have to ftp all the parts. The first thing you should do is get the `hundred' file in the top directory which lists all the files in the archive. Then cd into the appropriate directory to get the files you want. You may prefer to get the hundred.Z file and uncompress it at your end. I've used a 12-bit compress. If you have already got the hundred file, and want to know about additions to the archive, get the `newfiles' file. This file and the archive are updated every day or so. Every month I append `newfiles' to `hundred'. The archive directories are broken into `posting number' groups. For example, the directory 12500 holds the large postings which had posting numbers 12500 to 12999. The archive may be unavailable during local working hours, 2300 GMT to 0700 GMT. If you can't get through, try again outside these hours. Minnie also has the Clam source in the clam subdir, the online manuals in the manuals subdir. The check subdir holds the subject lines from comp.os.minix postings for the last three years. The Minix demo disks for the PC, Amiga and Atari are available in the demodisk directory. Comments etc. can be mailed to wkt@csadfa.cs.adfa.oz.au - mail won't be accepted by minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au.
