 Digest status update: MAILER PROBLEMS, ARCHIVES
 Re: Info-Graphics Digest

Subject: Digest status update: MAILER PROBLEMS, ARCHIVES

This note should bring you up to date on the status of the 
Info-Graphics Digest.

1. MAILER PROBLEMS: There still are some mailer problems (especially
   in some of the BBN internal mailers, apparently).  Those of you
   who program mailers, please note: if a piece of mail is found
   to be undeliverable, the mailer making this discovery should
   return it to the sender, not the "Reply-to:" address (assuming
   there is a Reply-to: address).  Also, the usual caveat: please
   bear in mind that this list is by design not heavily moderated,
   and often runs for weeks at a time in unattended automatic
   operation.  Garbage in, garbage out.

2. ARCHIVES: The Info-Graphics archives once again are available for
   anonymous FTP by other ARPANET sites.  We have found space to host 
   them here at ADS.arpa.  If you have Internet FTP access, you can
   fetch the archives by using anonymous FTP (username=anonymous,
   password=guest).  All Info-Graphics files may be found in the
   "pub/info-graphics" subdirectory.  There is a ReadMe file there
   which you probably will want to fetch and read first.  At present,
   the archives are stored in UNIX compress(1) format to save disk space
   and network bandwidth, and hence they must be transferred in image
   (binary) mode.  If you do not have and cannot obtain access to
   the UNIX compress/uncompress utility, then I may be able to leave
   an uncompressed file there for you to transfer, but this could take 
   a long time to arrange and you are best off trying to obtain local
   access to uncompress(1) first.  (The IP address is for ADS.arpa is 
   10.2.0.56, in case you can't find it in your host table.)

   Nothing has been done in this process to make these archives
   available to non-Internet sites or sites otherwise without
   ARPANET FTP access, and there are no immediate goals to provide
   such digest access.  (If you administer a non-Internet site and
   have the desire and resources to provide archive distribution 
   facilities, please send me a note.)

John,

A firm called Number Nine in Canbridge (?), Mass. makes the Pepper Board series
that  could be just what you are looking for.  Toolkits are available to for
drivers, etc.

One of the best monitors on the market is the NEC Multisync. They introduced
two new high end models that have the capabilities you need. NEC has also
brought out one or two hi-res boards to match the capabilities of these new
monitors.

Hope this helps!!


Cheers!
