NeXT-FAQ.intro Introduction to Frequently Asked Questions on comp.sys.next.misc Every four weeks (depending on the phase of the moon) a number of postings are made to comp.sys.next.announce which are a compilation of answers to commonly asked questions in the comp.sys.next.* USENET groups. Not all questions appear, it is expected that readers have access to NeXT manuals, and access other on-line sources of information. The FAQ is broken into sections and posted separately. These sections focus on various aspects of the NeXT machine. Items that appear within sections are not in any particular order, and get added and removed over time. Posting the sections separately allows people to find the sections interesting to them quickly. It also allows sections to be easily masked by the news reading program (ie put FAQ.intro in the kill file). Within each section each question will be preceded by a Subject: field, allowing news readers to break up the file into seperate questions. Each question has its own unique number. FAQ.changes will contain any new or changed entries to the FAQ since the last posting. People wishing to minimize download times should consult this post first. [soon, soon, I promise. -Nathan] The FAQ is kept on-line at several sites and may be retrieved at any time: plethora.media.mit.edu in pub/next/FAQ sonata.cc.purdue.edu in pub/next/FAQ srawgw.sra.co.jp [133.137.4.3] We are not affiliated with any of the companies mentioned in this posting. If you have any corrections, additions, questions, or answers to add to this list, please send email to nathan@laplace.csb.yale.edu Editors: Nathan Janette nathan@laplace.csb.yale.edu This compilation is meant primarily as a service to the comp.sys.next community. Newsletter editors wishing to excerpt from this work for publication should consider using local electronic bulletin boards to disseminate this information rather than preparing hardcopies. This allows for readers to access the most recent information, and perhaps save a couple of trees.
