When we register our users for the package we get them to outline the research 
project they are involved in, sometimes this is "analysis of DNA and protein 
sequences",  sometimes we get a short grant application! 

There are a couple of large folders of them here, so I guess most other sites 
have something like this, but I think Rob's form is more useful since it is 
asked for after the users get going with software.

I love it! 

(Hope it's in English though: your server is enough to 'finish' me off
sometimes :)) 
 
Knowing how reads Info-GCG (generalisation that I shall doubtless regret :)
I guess participating sites need to send this to their local user list 
(wot! no list - how do you let them know about neat new things on the net?)

Or collect them for your own site maybe and help Rob's overflowing mailbox to 
turn into an overflowing gopher server.

Nice thinking Rob!

I would just like to remind everybody that Profile Analysis can be especially
powerful in applications such as this where "traditional" similarity searching
has proven unfruitful.  Naturally, it is dependent on the "validity" and
strength of your multiple sequence alignment input.  However, with the right
profile, very small and remotely related domains can often be pulled out of the
database.  It has proven extremely sensitive in much of my work and I heartily
recommend it to all of our users.  Now only if GCG could get it to accept
automatic batch submission and get rid of the nasty bug associated with trying
to align too long of sequences to profiles and .....

A very satisfied user; thank you Michael (Gribskov), John (Devereux), Roland
(Luethy) and David (Eisenberg) [and numerous others] for a tremendous
contribution to sequence analysis.

I have the following tool. The last time I used it was in CMS5 under
VM/XA SP 2.1. I don't have source, only the module. I think I may have
obtained it from the NYSHARE@WEIZMANN server. I think there is a way to

It's really simple.

1. Define an Extrapartition TD queue pointing to the internal reader.
   //JOBQ DD SYSOUT=(A,INTRDR)

2. Make sure it is unblocked: LRECL=80, BLKSIZE=80

3. The program that submits the job should issue a WRITEQ TD for each
   JCL record.

4. End each job stream with two records that have only
   /*EOF

Take a look In the CICS/MVS Customization Guide in version 2.1.2 its chapter
5.10 on page 465 in my book.  This explains the CICS interface to JES.  We
use this method of submitting jobs from our general mail label system and
it works fine for us.  I think this is easier to use than the TD method in that
 CICS can now keep track of input from multiple transactions at the same time
without some sort of serialization that the TD method requires.  I do have
some problems with the way this interface works and may write some GUIDE
requirements to see if they can be corrected (ie. I would like the JES job
number returned after the submit).  Also this chapter defines how to get output
 from a batch job back into CICS but I haven't had an application that required
 this function yet.

Subject:      User Journals - 2.1.1 vs 2.1.2

We are testing User Journals under 2.1.2. It seems they are working
differently than under 2.1.1.
We have PAUSE,RETRY, pair of journals, and JSTATUS=RESET.
Under 2.1.2 unless we reinitialize the journals after they have
been written to, the message DFH4583, "Journal ready to be copied,
reply Ynnx when copied" appears when we bring up the region, whether
the startup is COLD or WARM. If we reply and then do just one transaction
on the current journal the other journal appears to be READY (CEMT INQ).
However, when we bring up the region again the same scenario repeats
itself.
We were in the process in 2.1.1 of automating journal processing and
had found that under 2.1.1 a reply to the request was all that was
required. We had found that we could copy the journals but did not
need to reinitialize them. This saved considerable time since the
journals are quite large. Now under 2.1.1 it seems we do need to reinitialize
them each time. (I believe this was the case under 1.5 or 1.6?)
Does anyone know if this is true and what has changed from 2.1.1 to 2.1.2?
(We also had to have a minimum of 3 TRKS for test journals, before we had 1)

Subject: QUERY: "damp lips"? [xposted from SHAKSPERE]

Shakespeare Electronic Conference, Vol. 3, No. 210.  Friday, 4 September 1d92.

From:           Robert White <WHITER@CITADEL.BITNET>
Date:           Friday, Sept. 4, 1992, 14:40:13
Subject:        Query

A non-Shakespearian colleague has asked for help in locating the source of the
following lines:

        The damp lips of fever smiled
        The welcome which they could not utter.

They appear in Sir William Osler's notes for a speech (in 1919) about Walt
Whitman.  He has checked concordances for Shakespeare, Milton, Poe, Wordsworth,
Byron, Marvell, Donne, Emerson, Herbert, Herrick, Hopkins, Shelley, Keats,
Blake, and Tennyson with no success.

If anyone recognizes the lines, please send a message directly to Prof.
Philip W. Leon, English Department, The Citadel, Charleston, SC, 29409.  The
e-mail address is (for BITNET) <LEONP@CITADEL>, or (for INTERNET)
<leonp@citadel.edu>.

Thanks,
Robert A. White
<WHITER@CITADEL> or <whiter@citadel.edu>.
