In regards to Nicholas Rosselli's question about capturing
results in a file - the answer is "it depends". FOr instance,
in UNIX you can do something like
telnet ... | tee filename
On a VAX, you can (sort of) achieve similar results by setting host
to the same machine you were originally on with the /log option
and then typing $telnet ....
after you finish your telnet session, logoff, and you can look
for sethost.log .
There are also ways to do this in VM (we had what I assume is
locally written code on our IBM VM machine to do this) - it's
manageable, but slightly more complicated.
Hope this helps.

Subject: Video projection panels
We plan to purchase a video projection panel to use for BI and
OPAC search training classes. A search of indexes hasn't
turned up any reviews more recent than 2 years old. Does
anyone have experience or advice to offer regarding particular
brands? We are looking for something under $3000.

Subject: Eudora Software Package at U of Illinois
From: IP25196@PORTLAND
I am interested in retrieving the Eudora software package.
According to Jim Matthews at Dartmouth it's available from
the archive at University of Illinois. Is anyone familiar
with the site -- proper address, contents etc.?
How can I get Eudora via ftp?
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Subject: Current Contents
We here at Virginia Tech are interested in different ways that
ISI's Current Contents has been implemented. We are presently comparing
mainframe versus micro (DEC station) implementations and need to make
design and/or purchasing decisions soon.
Before we re-invent too many wheels, though, we'd like any suggestions
or comments that people on the list would like to offer. What have
you tried and what do you recommend?
Reply to my own address and I'll summarize if there is enough
interest. Thank you.
