Hi Paul,
why is it that the mail I just picked up by UUCP is later
than the Fido mail I picked up this afternoon? And all the UUCP messages
are addressed to you (scorpio.wanker.com.au), even *my* messages! This
is pretty crook for Tallarook. How the hell cna I make up a personal
mail file if there is no TO: line? I've got a good mind to complain to
the WankerNet Gods and get you suspended for 6 weeks. Who's in charge
around here anyway?
Alan Mouat is the only one who knows what he's doing. Jeff has already
admitted that he comes to orgasm in less than a minute, so you know
where he stands...
And yes, Alan... you are wasting your time but I read it anyway.
Unfortunately, to reply to you via UUCP is beyond me just now unless
I fudge like hell... but I can read it okay.
PE> Hey Bob!
Guess what I saw just now? A script called "gunbatch". And it calls
gzip. So if you see "cunbatch", it probably means compress, whilst
"gunbatch" means gnu decompress. So it goes on that header of each
file you get! BFN. Paul.
I just cut and pasted that from UUCP.
AHA! C_unbatch and G-unbatch... they're batches of files! Shit! Now
I'll have to rewrite that nice code I've got working to let me read
the bloody things. I wonder what they use for zip Z-unbatch?
The thing that shits me is that they should have made compress and
gzip handle the identification as part of the program. It slows things
down to buggery to have to remove the first line from every file, then
close it and unzip it! Uni-wanker dickheads!
And where's AVT? All I'm getting is locsysop and locuser, addressed
to ALL.
Regards,
Bob
