Here's a message I sent out in the latest Info-Mac digest:

I have created a new directory called freq. It's intended for answers to
frequently asked questions. I think all veteran readers know what these are:

	1) How do I generate a Postscript file to use on another printer?
	2) Help! My hard disk doesn't show up on the desktop when I boot up.
	3) How can I rebuild the desktop?
	4) The apple symbol in the menu bar is flashing. I must have a virus.

Part of the point of a moderated digest like Info-Mac is to screen out the
noise caused by questions like these repeated again and again. However, it's
of course necessary for novice users to find out the answers to such
questions; that's how they become more experienced.

I have put preliminary answers to these questions in the freq directory.
Please read them and comment on their accuracy. Feel free to suggest
additional topics which should be included in freq.

Still no news on updating the Bitnet server to talk with the new archive.
However, I have discovered the existence of a mail server which talks to the
old archive. This may be convenient for those of you on UUPC and other
isolated sites which don't have either Bitnet or FTP access. Mail us for more
info.
