- InfoMagic Standards CD-ROM Set
- Summer 1995
-
- These CDs contain a variety of standards documents gathered from a
- number of public sources. Every effort has been made to arrange the
- files in a meaningful and useful directory structure. Naturally there
- is a "misc" directory that contains things that didn't quite fit
- anywhere else.
-
- Previous releases of this disc contained an IEEE directory. We were forced
- to remove this at the insistance of the IEEE. So much for the widespread
- distribution of standards !
-
- The directories on the discs are as follows:
-
- Disc1:
- ~~~~~~
- ansi/ SCSI specs
- dos/ DOS tools for untarring and unzipping
- inet/ Assorted Internet related material including RFC's, etc.
- iso/ Other ISO standards and Drafts
- misc/ Things that didn't fit anywhere else
- nist/ National Institute of Standards
- hyperrfc/ RFC's in HyperText
- winsock/ Windows Sockets docs
- winsnmp/ Windows SNMP specs.
- infostnd/ Installation files for the Browser (see below)
- ghost/ Installation files for Ghostscript and Ghostview (see
- below)
- Disc2:
- ~~~~~~
- ccitt/ 1988 Bluebook and 1992 revisions
- 1988 1988 material in ASCII, Postscript, and TROFF
- 1992 1992 (and newer) material in Postscript, ASCII, WordPerfect
- and Word-for-Windows format
-
- In the 1988 version of the Bluebook, volume 8, which covers
- networking, is only provided in preliminary troff files. These files
- are not completely usable as provided, though much of the text formats
- correctly. Many of these documents are available in the 1992 versions
- in Word for Windows, ASCII, and EPS formats.
-
- The file "files.lst" shows the location and date/size information
- for all the files on both discs.
-
- We have provided several applications on the 1st disc. These
- include:
- 1) RFC's in Hypertext. This is a compilation from late
- 1991 of approximately 250 of the core RFC's. They
- are all fully updated as of the creation date (Oct
- 1991) and fully cross linked. This application uses
- version 1.0 of the Microsoft Multimedia Viewer (which
- is provided). To install this application run
- "setup.exe" from the "hyperrfc" directory.
-
- 2) Ghostscript and Ghostview. These two applications
- allow postscript files to be viewed under DOS and
- Windows and to be printed on non-postscript printers.
- They are required to use the included browser (see
- below). To install these applications run
- "setup.exe" from the "ghost" directory.
-
- 3) The InfoMagic Standards Browser. This application
- lets you view the CCITT & RFC's directly from the CD.
- It supports viewing of the ASCII, Postscript, and
- Word-for-Windows versions (assuming you have the
- supporting applications). To install the browser run
- "setup.exe" from the "infostnd" directory.
