  3. Subject: EASY, a menu driven front end for UNIX
  4. Message-ID: <1991Feb11.224411.10152@iex.uucp>
  5. Date: 11 Feb 91 22:44:11 GMT
  6.  
  7.  
  8. This is a very early attempt I had at a menu driven UNIX front end for
  9. novice users.
  10.  
  11. It is written in ksh. Sorry haven't had time to port it to sh or csh
  12. Put the file easy in /usr/local/bin.
  13. Put the file easy.h and easy.time in /usr/local/bin.
  14. type % easy
  15. You will probably need to modify the Main menu to use something other than
  16. ELM, RN, and Tsheet.
  17. It is in no way Guaranteed, all liabilities are that of the user.
  18. Feel free to Modify in any way.
  19.  
  20. Mail me suggestions or comments as to how it could be better.
  21.  
  22. There will be three files to cut out.
  23. 1. easy
  24. 2. easy.h
  25. 3. easy.time
  26.  
  27. +++++++++++++++++++CUT HERE and name it 'easy'++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
  28. /usr/local/lib/easy.h 2>/dev/null
  29.  
  30. +++++++++++++++++++CUT HERE and name it 'easy.h'++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
