Perfect! Thanks so much :-) The first two are now also on archive, the
InfoServer CD will follow soon:
Excellent.
I plan on updating the description for the CONOLD CDs
with a list of the
books included. That probably means writing a script to extract that
information from the DECW$BOOKSHELF files.
I did look at the CONOLD and there didn't seem to be anything that would
help (other than the bookshelf files).
There was the VTBOOK software on a DECUS release many years ago. It got
stomped on for a while and then DEC gave up the fight against PDF and (I
think) VTBOOK made it to the Freeware CD. That might help in working out
the format.
Wow, thanks a lot! You are putting in some serious effort here! I'm
glad this worked so well :-)
I rather suspect that if I'd stopped the initial ddrescue when it was at
99% and just gone straight to the 1500 grit sandpaper, then I could have
saved my DVD-RW a few days of work.
I've just catalogued the VAX CONDIST/CONOLD sets I have and it comes in
at 14 or so. I'm hoping that someone tells me that they're already
archived before I start on those :-)
