I would like to know if there are tools for waffle that have better
news and mail processing than waffle. Waffle seems a bit primitive.
A nice UIF (mouse?) would be preferable.

But doesn't this run the risk of losing mail if it is expired before
being batched?


While I'm here, I'd like to argue against the @filename use as equivalent
to .unixuse for the waffle login script, or any other use. DOS seems to
be going the command @filename where @filename is a list of filenames on
which the command operates (eg del @list.txt), and while you CAN work
around it, I'd rather NOT, especially if I'm going to have users edit
their OWN waffle file. I'd hate one to go DEL @waffle and have it do
AWFUL (tm) things or even just confuse the user (ie require del ?waffle).


You don't have to agree with me, but watch out for the Haventree (tm)
attack shark which I borrowed for the week.

I'm getting fed up with the buffer overload that I get everytime I try
to do an ASCII upload... this is one *TINY* buffer.  And once the
upload is under way, there is NO way to stop it.  I just have to sit
and wait... and wait... and wait... for it to all come crashing
through.

A couple of times, BBStevie *LOCKED UP* with a "malloc() cannot allocate
memory" or something and a loud non-stop bell.  Not nice to bring the
board to a full-stop without notice - I'm the sysop and I do a lot
of my work REMOTELY.  No BBS, no sysop maintenance.

I also wish that BBStevie would allow ":r" commands for sysops (with
the appropriate access level passed on the command line).  Or possibly
even a ":!" command or two - for sysops of course.

Are any of these things fixed/new in this BBStevie v3.0 I heard someone
mention?

Is anybody out there in netland using the new COM driver and waffle??

With COMMGA.ZOO as of September o92 AND the bnu fossil I can only get
about 780 CPS with V.32 ( 9600 bit/s ) during 16 bit compressed
news poll.

Feeding another site with news is even worse. ( 560 CPS )

For the German Waffle Users:
Is there a BBS here in Good Old Germany where I could download
SIO000.ZIP from??

Any hints welcome.

Easy, MNP5 compressio cannot cut itself out of the loop if it starts 
compressing pre-compressed data.  The last thing _I_ want is to spend more 
time on line moving those compressed news batches.

I think I figured it out.... It appears that if a file by the name
"waffle" exists in the user's directory, then Waffle tries to "execute"
its contents like a script or something.

Is this documented?  I cannot find it.

Anyway... this is disconcerting because I was saving comp.bbs.waffle
messages with "write waffle"; now I have to use another name.

What about groups, will that do it?  I assume it works in Unix similar

Seems to me Chrome is intended to be run on a system which employs

Bill, you're too kind...

pkunzip does not overwrite existing files unless you tell it too.
the docs do not say 'overwrite them'.
if somebody did, that's why they tell you to make backups...

if anybody upgrades a version without using something like the PC magazine
(free!) 'rendir' command to rename the existing \waffle to something like
\waffle.164, I think they get what they deserve...

if you run a waffle system, and you don't have stashed copies of your
password, static, external(s), systems, etc...etc...files, you also get
what you deserve.

Actually, now that I think about it, you don't even need that.  Wafmail
already does a passable job of stuffing USENET messages into QWK packets.
The real limitations are in the offline readers.  If someone wrote a QWK
reader that would recognize USENET style messages in the body of the QWK
packet, all these problems could be solved.  All the information is there,
it's just in headers in the message body instead of the QWK mail
headers.

I don't understand the logic here.  Are you suggesting that it would be
easier to develop offline newsreaders that would use the RNEWS format than
to get a QWK mail reader to recognize that the QWK packet contains a
USENET style message?  Doesn't make sense.  In either case the format is
nothing but a wrapping that you put around the USENET style message.  The
key is getting a reader to recognize that fact and deal with it.  The
difference is that an intelligent QWK would be useful on just about any BBS
while an RNEWS newsreader would be useful only on a very limited number of
boards. 

I often see people here suggest just giving people a copy of Waffle and
setting up a feed for them.  That's not practical for many Sysops and
doesn't really achieve what we're setting out to do to begin with.
I don't have space on my system to store news batches for 20 users until
they get around to calling.  Besides that, most of those users, although
they're intelligent people with something worthwhile to contribute to the
net, just don't have enough interest in the details of networking to want
to set up their own personal site.

It ain't perfect, but it's closer than anything else.

To expect one man (on a part time basis) to write some spectacular code
and then to document it perfectly is a bit unfair.

Playing with DOS Waffle has been, and continues to be, an education.
This is a positive comment.

Thanks, Tom.
