It is kind of funny it adds that .sig. Does contradicts what I was posting
;-)
No apologies needed. Sometimes I forget that it adds it there. The problem
is I have to scroll down
several pages to read a one or two line comment. It bites sometimes,
especially when I am supposed to
be doing REAL work instead of reading classiccmp :-)
Cheers,
Ram

I took this a bit farther and searched for:
+XP -microsoft -windows -"extreme programming" +tektronix -phaser
and found this page which talks about the Tek XP term configuration.

Sorry Ram, I didn't mean to criticise you; I realize that the .sig
on your email-from-work is mandatory. I merely found it amusing,
is all.
I agree 100% with you, there's too much bloat in list mail. It's
only a couple of keystrokes(*) to remove extraneous text, and it
makes intent clearer when the original one or two lines is above
(or below) instead of 100.
(*) such as d} in vi, my classic (sic) text editor :-)

PS: } isn't classic vi motion, I think it's a vim extention.
This is in response to a message dated Sat Oct 19 12:32:00 2002 that I
found online. I have a Sharp PC4500 but I don't have a boot disk for it.
What can I do to make a boot disk for it? It seems to be working, it
powers up but it wants a boot disk.
Any help would be appreciated.

I think that you may be looking at the boot code for Tektronix X terminals.
Don't delete it -- I have a nice old Tektronix XP14 terminal that powers up and self-tests,
but I can't find the code to make it run X windows.
That code is loaded from a server with tftp (could be a Mac or linux box)
Tektronix sold their code to NCD and now NCD in closing shop.
Here is some info on file names, etc:

Subject: What the heck is XP? (not the Microsoft kind)
Anyone heard of something called XP which is X Windows related? I just
found a bunch of stuff lurking under an 'XP' directory on this Tektronix
and it's taking up quite a bit of disk space. (I can't think of a good
way of googling without getting swamped with MS stuff)
Looks to be some multi-platform *something* as there are directories for
the xd88, sun3, sun4 and Ultrix under there. Nothing that gives away
what it actually does though.
Just trying to decide whether to move it or kill it outright (I've got
it backed up within the hard drive image). Kinda curious as to what it's
supposed to do though.

Guys,
That stupid corporate .sig is NOT my sig. It is automatically added by the
mail server since I am responding via my work email address. I wish there
was a way to remove it, but I can't...

Rather arrogant comming from someone with a full-page disclaimer.
It's also rather arrogant when your claim exclusive copyright on the body of the message when it clearly contains quoted text from a 3rd party. How exactly did this become your "property"?

I will have a reconditioned Mekel available in about two months for
around $15k
This is a fraction of the new price for these units.
