- This archive contains the binary distribution kit for version 3.0 of
- uupc for the Macintosh.
-
- uupc is a program which allows your Macintosh to communicate using the
- "uucp" (Unix-to-Unix Copy Program) protocols, and to exchange files
- and electronic mail with other uucp sites. It is a major upgrade of
- uupc 2.0 and 2.1, which were released to the Macintosh user community
- several years ago. uupc 3.0 is MultiFinder-friendly, runs under System
- 6.0.x and under System 7, supports fast modems, is domain-aware, allows
- for both outbound calls and for inbound (slave-mode) calls, has an
- automatic call-scheduler, supports both the 'g' protocol (7-packet
- window, packets up to 256 bytes) and the 'f' protocol (for use with
- error-correcting modems or with X.25 links).
-
- The Macintosh uupc 3.0 software release was coordinated by Dave Platt.
- Code added in this release was written by a large number of
- individuals, including Dave Platt, Gary Morris, Drew Derbyshire,
- Sak Wathanasin, and probably others I've forgotten to mention
- (apologies!). The list of beta-testers is as long as my arm...
- thank you, one and all, for pounding the tar out of this software
- over the last few months.
-
- uupc 3.0 is "freeware"... use it, give it away, pass it around, upload
- it to your friendly neighborhood BBS. Don't use it as the basis for a
- commercial product... portions of it are copyright by their respective
- authors.
-
- uupc 3.0 is provided without any warranty whatsoever. If you feed it
- after midnight, and it gets nasty and shreds your living room furniture,
- that's your problem, not mine ;-). I'd like to hear about any problems
- you may have with uupc 3.0, but I do not promise to fix them, or support
- uupc 3.0 in any way.
-
- Full source code to uupc 3.0 is being posted in a second archive... if
- you don't like the way some aspect of uupc 3.0 works, you can customize
- it to suit your own preferences!
