there is code that will take nextmail and turn it into MIME (RFC 1341)
multi-media mail, so that if you're suitably motivated you can deal with
nextmail on most any box.  (that includes getting the audio attachments
right!)

I have spent some time resource discovering and organizing directory  
services and have put them up as part of the Notre Dame Gopher.  The  
following link will get you there.

Name=Phone Books--Other Institutions
Type=1
Port=70
Path=1/Non-Notre Dame Information Sources/Phone Books--Other  
Institutions
Host=gopher.nd.edu

Contained here is the whois stuff (thanks to UMINN and MIT), some  
WAIS sources, Michigan's X.500 service, knowbot information service,  
and a reasonable collection of CSO sites.  All of these are divided  
similarly to the standard "Other Gophers" taxonomy into Asia Pacific,  
Europe, North America, and All the Directory Servers in the World.

Also contained here is an ftp link aimed at the MIT authoritative  
list of whois servers maintained by Matt Powell.  Please mail any new  
whois sites to him.  Please mail any new CSO sites you know of to  
me--I would like to maintain a comprehensive list.

Feedback always welcome, especially if you are aiming links.

This is yet another impassioned plea for a Windows 3.X version of
Gopher.  Nothin' fancy, just what the rest of the platforms have (!).

Now that the new term is underway, can't y'all get some grad student to
work night and day for next to nothing and hammer this out?  ;-{)

We'd *love* to see a version that supports the packet driver or PC/TCP.

Thanks for reading (sigh).

It's a problem with TCP/IP - although some developers claim it's a feature
- not a bug ;-)

To kill them off, either:

a) reboot ;-))

or

b) follow this arcane advise I got from a mailing-list (it works at least
under SunOS 4.1.*)

do a 'netstat -A'

Buckminster Fuller domes work something as follows.

1. Start with an icosahedron.  Here're its coordinates in hopefully a
decipherable format:

    3     1  2 11  
    3     1 11  6
    3     1  6  5  
    3     1  5 10

The .61803 are actually exactly sqrt(5)/2-.5 .


2. Subdivide by adding hexagons.  If you replace each vertex by a
hexagon, then each old pentagon gives area to 5 hexagons, and leaves a
smaller pentagon in the center.  At least, something like this occurs.

3. Project the new vertices out onto the sphere.

4. If more vertices are desired, goto 2.

Geoff Dutton is probably an expert on this.

At Utrecht University, Cartography Dept, we developed the National Atlas

national atlas built in HyperCard on the Macintosh> We reported on this at
the EGIS 90 conference in Amsterdam.:

the Netherlands: The National Atlas Information System.
In: EGIS'90 Proceedings, april 10-13 1990, Amsterdam, The Neherlands, pp

Furthermore you should take notice of the work of Dr. Eva Siekierska at EMR
Canada, who invented the term "elctronic atlas" and published on various
ocasions on this subject.

software to use in our exploration efforts.  The resulting product, DataVision,  is

The AML User's Guide indicate that the [TASK] function can be used to call
a subroutine written in Fortran. There is also an example of call to a C
function (but passing throught a Fortran routine!) I would like to know if
anyone used such techniques and get some example of it.

I also heard that AML was previously written in Fortran, but has now been

I think that Microsoft Fortran 77 has a maximum data segment size of
64k.  If your data structure is bigger than that, you either have to
program around it (e.g. process data in smaller chunks) or get a
Fortran compiler that can handle larger pieces of memory (try the
Lahey compilers).

  Yes, Landsat Multispectral Scanner (MSS) and TM images that
were purchased before the Sept. or Oct. 1986 commercialization of Landsat are
not covered by the copyright. This follows from the limits on _post facto_
laws. Even Congress can't take away rights to copy material already in the
public domain. I don't know what is the status for scenes that were collected
but not purchased before that time. So if you buy an old (pre 1986) scene from
EOSAT today, I don't know if it is covered or not. Sorry about any confusion
caused by my not mentioning the pre-EOSAT data status.

Hi,
  R.E. GIS/LIS Conf. Info, what do you need, and I'll try to find out.
All of the papers for the proceedings were just delivered to me yesterday
and they are now being put together for delivery to the printer by the
end of next week.  I've not seen a preliminary program as yet, but must
say I've been shoveling out from the ISPRS meeting and haven't really
been paying attention to it -- I know it is out, and will pass your
name and address along to the folks who are mailing them out.  If you
need some info quicker, I'll go dig up a copy (I should have one anyway)
and pass whatever I can along.
  Don Hemenway, ASPRS

Subject:      Fugitive GIS Papers

Dear GIS-Lers,

   As North American editor of the International Journal of GIS,
I am interested in ways that the journal can be of continued and
improved use to the GIS community. An idea discussed by the senior
editors at the ISPRS meeting last month was one raised here on
GIS-L a few months ago, i.e. that some important journal articles
in the GIS literature are "fugitive", difficult to find or published
in inaccessible forms such as contract reports, internal memoranda,
etc. If the interest was sufficient, IJGIS would consider re-publishing
a limited number of "classic" GIS papers.

What I need to know is:

(1) Is this a good idea?
(2) What papers would you recommend?

Please reply to kclarke@resdgw6.er.usgs.gov unless your
message is of general interest to GIS-L. I will post a
"lost GIS papers" bibliography when I have one compiled.

Thanks.               Keith Clarke

I am looking for progrmas to display and manipulate image files
on a vanilla PC. We are working with researchers in the former
USSR and they have a 486 with VGA monitor. Any tips would be 
appreciated

Try compiled with /Gt option and used large memory model.
   eg: Fl /Gt filename.for
