Hi everyone,

thanks for replying to my previous post on CWIS-L .  I am thrilled to know
that the print/mail feature is not unique to our PUrdue system and that
infact it is available many of the existing CWIS's.

I would also like to bring to ur attention a mistake in my previous post.

I got the telnet port number wrong.  It is actually 128.210.7.41
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Balaji

SSINFO is the name of the CWIS  at Purdue University.  It is easy to use and
provides access to useful and timely data.  One of the notable features of this
system is its print and mail capability.  SSINFO offers users the option of
copying screens from SSINFO into a file that can be printed on one of the
printers on the Purdue campus computing network, or sent to a remote computer
account via electronic mail.  This is a unique feature of our system.  This
feature has just been installed on our system here at Purdue.   We think that
it would be something CWIS developers worldwide would like to provide on their
systems also.  We would like you all to try this new feature on SSINFO, and
welcome your comments and suggestions.   Details on how to access SSINFO and its
MAIN MENU screen are provided below.
