`Supersedes: intro21: Volume 21, INF 1
`Last-modified: 25-Sep-1993
`This is the first of five introductory messages about comp.sources.x.
`It describes the newsgroup's history, how to submit sources to c.s.x,
`where the archive sites are, and how to contact and access them. The
`second, third and fourth postings together comprise the index of previously
`posted software. The fifth article is a cross-index of patches that have
`been posted to this newsgroup.
`There are *many* things covered in this posting -- each new topic is
`preceded by a Subject: line. If you get bored reading a particular
`section, fast forward to the next Subject: line and read that one.
`Please don't submit sources without having read -everything- in this
`file (you'll be tested and graded later :-).
`Most of all, this posting describes how to submit sources to comp.sources.x,
`where the archive sites are, and how to contact them. The second lists
`the sources that have been published in this newsgroup.
`NOTE 1:
`Many people are submitting sources that do not have an Imakefile
`or a patchlevel.h. You *must* provide these! I no longer have the
`time to create them for you. Further submissions that do not have
`these files will be rejected.
`NOTE 2:
`Patches *must* contain an update to patchlevel.h and indicate which
`volume and issue numbers that precede this patch. This includes both
`the original posting and previous patches.
`As always, I am looking for suggestions on how to improve the usefulness
`of the newsgroup. *Please* do not hesitate to send suggestions to
`ch...@sparky.sterling.com.

`
`--------------------
`Subject: The structure of comp.sources.x articles
`Each posting in comp.sources.x is called an "issue"; there are roughly 100
`issues to a volume. The division is arbitrary, and has varied greatly in
`the past. There are two types of articles in comp.sources.x; sources
`and "information postings." They can be distinguished by the subject
`line:
`Subject: v03INF1: Introduction to comp.sources.x
`This first word in the title identifies this as the first info posting of
`volume three. Similarly, the subject line shown below:
`Subject: v01i060: select: a selection widget, Part01/01
`identifies this as the 60th source article in Volume 1. All sources are
`broken up into pieces. This is done so that there could be a proper storage
`directory when patches are issued. This is part 1 of a 1 part posting.
`Subject: v01i056: xphoon: Show phase of the Moon on root window, Part01/04
`The first few lines of an article are auxiliary headers that look like this:
`Submitted-by: ro...@freeware.ATT.COM
`Posting-number: Volume 7, Issue 82
`Archive-name: new-Xlogin/part01
`The "Submitted-by" is the author of the program. IF YOU HAVE COMMENTS ABOUT
`THE SOURCES PUBLISHED IN COMP.SOURCES.X, THIS IS THE PERSON TO CONTACT.
`When possible, this address is in domain form, otherwise it is a UUCP bang
`path relative to some major site such as "uunet."
`The second line repeats the volume/issue information for the aide of NOTES
`sites and automatic archiving programs.
`The Archive-name is the "official" name of this source in the archive. Large
`postings will have names that look like this:
`Archive-name: xdvi/part01
`Please try to use this name when requesting that sources be mailed to you.
`Also, note that the "part number" given in the title, and the archive name
`given in the auxiliary header need not be identical.
`-----------------
`Subject: Patches Handling
`Patches will be handled as swiftly as possible. Authors of sources posted
`to c.s.x should send all patches to me so that I can post them back through
`the newsgroup in order that the patches can be archived. This has not been
`done in the past in other sources groups and has lead to lost patches. If
`the patches must get out *real* fast, post them to comp.sources.bugs and
`send me a copy at the same time so that they will be available when they
`are needed in the future.
`To support the tracking of patches, the Patch-To: line is used in c.s.x.
`The Patch-To: line exists for articles that are patches to previously posted
`
`2
`
`12
`
`MS 1125 - Page 2
`
`

`
`software. The Patch-To: line only appears in articles that are posted,
`"Official", patches. The initial postings would not contain the Patch-To:
`auxiliary header line.
`Patch-To: syntax
`Patch-To: package-name: Volume X, Issue x[-y,z]
`Patch-To: examples. These are examples and do not reflect the
`accurate volume/issue numbering for rkive.
`In the first example, the article that contains the following line
`is a patch to a single part posting.
`Patch-To: rkive: Volume 22, Issue 122
`This example shows that the 122-124 indicates the patch applies to
`a multi-part posting. The '-' is used to mean "article A through article
`B, inclusive..
`Patch-To: rkive: Volume 22, Issue 122-124
`If a patch applies to multiple part postings that are not consecutive, the
`',' is used to separate the part issue numbers. It is possible to mix both
`',' and '-' on a single Patch-To: line.
`Patch-To: rkive: Volume 22, Issue 122,125,126,127
`Patch-To: rkive: Volume 22, Issue 122,125-127
`--------------------
`Subject: Reporting and tracking bugs.
`You should subscribe to comp.sources.bugs.
`Sometimes, when new versions of previously-published software is available,
`just patches are put out, usually in the form of shar files containing
`input for the "patch" program, new files, etc. Sometimes complete new
`versions are put out. Generally, minor updates should be in patch form
`and update the patchlevel.h file. Major updates usually indicate that
`there have been so many changes that the patches outweigh the size of the
`new source or that the number of patch levels grows so large that people
`are rarely up to date. If it's been a year since the last major posting,
`it is a candidate for being reposted.
`To report bugs, contact the person listed in the Submitted-by header.
`Often there is a contact address in a README file, too. I do not maintain
`the sources I moderate, so don't send your bug reports to me.
`Likewise, I normally do not post patches for a package from anyone
`except the author. If you have patches you would like to see included
`in the package, send them to the person listed in the Submitted-by
`header.
`--------------------
`Subject: Submitting source for publication
`Items intended for posting or queries and problem notes should be sent to
`sour...@sterling.com, *not* to the address of the newsgroup moderator.
`If you want verification of arrival, say so in a cover note, or at the
`beginning of your submission, if it is small. I try to verify that a
`program works, and if I can't get it to work, I may hold up posting it
`
`3
`
`12
`
`MS 1125 - Page 3
`
`

`
`for a couple of days. Please note that, except in rare cases, source
`that doesn't meet the guidelines will not be published. The backlog
`from receipt to posting varies from one to four weeks depending mostly
`on the set of submissions currently in my queue and my current work load.
`-------------------
`Subject: Guidelines
`To make life easier for both myself and the users of the comp.sources.x
`newsgroup, I request that all submissions follow the following guidelines.
`Initial Submissions:
`1. Try to use #include <X11/Xos.h> instead of things like
`types.h, strings.h and time.h
`2. Please use -display displayname and -geometry geomspec
`instead of the old style.
`3. Source filenames need to be 12 or fewer characters in length.
`(The existence of X servers and toolkits is now beginning to
`sprout up on DOS machines! For *optimum* portability, you
`should try using 8-char base names with no more than 3 chars
`dot-extensions.)
`4. Include an Imakefile. For more information on Imakefile's,
`read imake.man in util/imake on the X11 Release 4 distribution.
`5. A Makefile is required.
`6. A manual page is required.
`7. A README file is required. This should contain a brief
`description of what the posting is and any special
`considerations in building it. The README should
`also contain a list of authors and the distribution
`and copying policy.
`8. Postings should be in shar format of <= 50K. If it is necessary to
`split the posting into multiple parts, each shar file should be <= 50K.
`9. Include a patchlevel.h -- This file is used to keep track
`of how many official patches have been applied.
`10. If fonts are submitted, please assure they are in bdf format.
`11. Any additional documentation (past the required man page)
`should be in PostScript format or some nroff/troff format so
`people can print it out nicely.
`Updates, patches, etc.:
`It is up to the author to determine if there have been major enough
`changes to warrant a complete reposting. This may be necessary if the
`size of the patches exceeds the size of the source but in most cases
`only patches are posted. Total repostings should be treated as an
`initial posting. What follows pertains to patches...
`1. When patches are submitted, they should be in context diff
`format.
`2. A patch to patchlevel.h should be done to reflect that the
`patch has been applied. You are -advised- to include a Prereq:
`line in your patch for this file so that if patchlevel.h fails
`to patch correctly (the user is out of sync), the rest of the
`patches will not be applied.
`3. Include information about which previously posted issues
`the patch pertains to if they were initially posted to c.s.x.
`This information will be reflected in the Patch-To: header
`when your article is posted.

`

`
`For more information on patch see patch.man in util/patch/patch.man
`in the X11 Release 4 distribution or in volume7 of the comp.sources.unix
`archives. Patches can be made with diff -c on 4.XBSD based machines and
`with diffc on others. Diffc can be found in volume 1 of comp.sources.unix
`archives. GNU diff can also be used to create context diffs.
`---------------------------------------
`Subject: Editorial comments
`Altho I don't make it a rule, postings which require uuencoded files
`be included are accepted, but I much prefer btoa format. In fact,
`source code submissions (especially large ones) are more easily
`transferred in mail and more easily stored for me if you use tarmail
`rather than shar. But this in in my own opinion and I am not making
`any requirements that people use tarmail/btoa at all.
`Why btoa instead of uuencode? First and foremost, uuencode doesn't travel
`well over certain mail transport agents because it uses a "space" as a
`possible conversion character. There are some MTAs that remove trailing
`spaces from the ends of lines and it would result in a file that you could
`not "decode". Secondly, the amount of ascii characters actually
`generated by "btoa" is far fewer than uuencode, saving on net traffic.
`Finally, it's just so much easier to deal with -- you don't
`have to worry about setuid, creating files automatically, chmod 666, and
`you can use btoa in a pipe.
`"Top 10 pet peeves of the comp.sources.x moderator."

`9.
`Submissions that contain postscript.
`8.
`<not available due to writer's guild strike> (oh, is that over?)
`7.
`People who send me sources using uuencode (use "shar" files < 50K each).
`6.
`Programs that don't compile right the first time.
`5.
`<not available due to writer's block>
`4.
`Shell scripts that post the wrong subject line.
`3.
`Patches that don't apply correctly.
`2.
`No, I *still* don't know when R6 is going to be released. :-)

`Subject: Accessing the archives
`The complete archives are fairly large; an average volume is well
`over 10 megabytes!
`There are several active archive sites around the net. Archive sites in
`the U.K., Canada, and Switzerland are set up, and it may be extended to
`provide full European coverage.
`Some sites below will send tapes through the mail. For those sites, send
`a 1/2" mag tape WITH RETURN POSTAGE and RETURN MAILER. Tapes without
`postage or mailer will not be returned. No other methods (COD, etc.) are
`available; please don't ask.

`The East Coast Xarchive is now available. The purpose of
`this archive is to provide access to all publicly available X Window
`System based software through UUCP. The archive contains a complete
`comp.sources.x directory and a copy of what can be found on expo/contrib
`and expo/pub. The expo directories are updated roughly once a month.
`The archive can be accessed at 1200 and 2400 baud.
`UUCP connections are available on request The only requirements are that
`you submit the attached form requesting connection information. When you
`submit the form, your host becomes authorizes to call the archive. You
`will be sent a copy of the L.sys entry for accessing the archive. The

`In order to ensure that the archive service does not interfere with
`real work, the uucico for the archive login will be have its "x"
`permission bits turned off at 8 a.m. Chicago local time (CST6CDT) and
`on again at 6 p.m. on weekdays. Execute permission will be turned on
`throughout Saturday and Sunday.
`The phone number for "mcdch1" is (currently) +1 708 576 7902. There
`is a single line on that number. The modem will answer at 2400bps and
`will require a carraige return to get a "login:" prompt. It will
`down-speed to 1200 bps. In response to the login prompt, your system
`should send the login id, "pduucp". The password is "public". As I
`said above, all this is turned off between about 8 a.m. and 6 p.m.
`Chicago time Monday through Friday, so we can get our real work done,
`so don't bother trying it during those periods.
`The Systems file entry for doing this looks something like:
`(For HoneyDanBer UUCP (BNU) users. Combine into a single line.)
`mcdch1 Wk1800-0730,Sa,Su ACU 2400 chiburb5767902
`"" \r\c in:--in: pduucp word: public
`Once you have your system set up to place an outgoing UUCP call to
`"mcdch1", you can retrieve material from the archives. There are
`three files that are excellent choices for testing your link. This
`file is file mcdch1!~/howto.snarf. The current directory of what is
`stored in the comp.sources.unix archives is found in the file
`mcdch1!~/unix/directory. The current directory of what is stored in
`the comp.sources.x archives is found in the file mcdch1!~/x/directory.
`To get these files, execute commands like:
`uucp mcdch1!~/howto.snarf !~/MYNAME/
`uucp mcdch1!~/unix/directory !~/MYNAME/directory.unix
`uucp mcdch1!~/x/directory !~/MYNAME/directory.x
`The directory is simply the output from "ls -sRxF" on the comp.sources.x
`archive disk hierarchy. It is updated just before 6 p.m. every day.
`Be sure to look carefully to be sure you are getting the latest version
`available. Also, look for "index" files to help find what you want.
`NOTE: There are occasionally inconsistencies between the archive names
`we have on disk and those published in the index by the moderator
`of comp.sources.x.
`WARNING: These files are not stored under /usr/spool/uucppublic, so
`requests for an absolute pathname, rather than one under "~"
`will almost certainly fail. Currently, "~" is /source/public, but
`that is subject to change.
`WARNING: Please be aware that uucp commands asking for file names
`containing wild cards will almost certainly not work. This is
`because all of the implementations I know of submit a uux job
`to the remote system asking it to run "uucp" on the wild card
`filename. Systems logging in with "pduucp" are prohibited from
`executing "uucp" or other commands via "uux". So, be sure to
`ask for each file separately.
