- This is the README file for the Taylor UUCP contrib directory.
-
- This directory contains contributed shell scripts and programs that
- you may find useful.
-
- Not actually included here, but nonetheless useful, is the TUA program
- distributed by Lele Gaifax <lele@nautilus.sublink.org>. It can do
- various sorts of analysis of any type of UUCP log file. It should be
- available from most FTP sites.
-
- xchat.c, xchat.man, README-XCHAT, xc-conf.h-dist, Makefile.xchat:
- A program by Bob Denny that may be invoked by the ``chat-program''
- command for any of the various types of chat scripts. It is
- driven by scripts which are written in its own little language.
- It is a powerful program that can add a lot of flexibility to your
- chat scripts.
-
- Dial.Hayes, Hangup.Hayes, Login.LAT, Login.PortSel, Login.VMS:
- Sample scripts for xchat.
-
- uucomp.shar
- A set of programs which automatically compresses outgoing data in
- the spool directory. The remote system must cooperate when using
- this. It can cut down on phone usage when applicable.
- Contributed by Ed Carp.
-
- uurate.c, uurate.man, README-UURATE, Makefile.uurt:
- A nifty little program by Bob Denny which analyzes the Log and
- Stats file and prints various sorts of reports. This version was
- tweaked by Stephan Niemz and Klaus Dahlenburg.
-
- uutraf:
- Another program to produce neat reports from your log files, this
- one a perl script by Johan Vromans.
-
- savelog.sh, savelog.man:
- A handy shell script to rename a log file and cycle old versions
- through a set of names, throwing away the oldest one. It will
- also optionally compress the old log files. I believe that this
- is originally from smail. It was written by Ronald S. Karr and
- Landon Curt Noll, and was given to me by Bob Denny.
-
- uureroute.perl:
- A perl script to reroute all mail queued up for one host to
- another. Written by Bill Campbell and contributed by Francois
- Pinard.
-
- stats.sh:
- A gawk script by Zacharias Beckman which reads the Stats file and
- prints the last 80 lines as a nicely formatted table.
-
- uuq.sh:
- A uuq workalike shell script by Zacharias Beckman.
-
- uupoll.shar:
- uupoll and autopoll programs contributed by Klaus Dahlenburg.
- uupoll can be used to automatically poll all systems, or a list of
- systems; autopoll will poll and then retry failed calls.
-
- uudemon.shar:
- An implementation of the HDB uudemon.poll script by Donald Burr.
-
- uuxconv:
- A program by Richard E. Nickle to help convert SPOOLDIR_HDB spool
- directories to SPOOLDIR_TAYLOR spool directories (note that it is
- not necessary to convert your spool directories at all; the
- SPOOLDIR_TAYLOR approach may be slightly more efficient).
-
- dialHDB.c:
- A program by Daniel Hagerty which permits using HDB dialer
- programs as chat programs.
-
- amiga.c:
- A wrapper program to run uucico from a cron table under Amiga
- SVR4 (apparently a wrapper is required). This was contributed by
- Lawrence E. Rosenman.
-
- tstout.c:
- A program to remove a user from utmp and wtmp, essentially logging
- them out. I put this together from BSD code. I need it to use
- tstuu with the system UUCP on Ultrix 4.0, for reasons that escape
- me. Most people will have little use for this.
