JNL_HUNTER.PL Doing the journal hunt in MS-DOS or UNIX by dan mahoney.
After each Dialog search, the log is checked to see if we
hold any of the journals. This is done via a perl
program that extracts the ISSN and CODEN fields from
a dialog record. After perl works on the capture log
it passes a file of issn numbers and codens to fgrep,
which in turn searches the file against a file of
local journal holdings. NOTE: only the perl source code
is provided, instructions are given for obtaining copies
of perl and fgrep for ms-dos.
