Hello,
During a clear out I found the following floppy disk sets, I am not sure if they are of
any use to anyone:
Pathworks V5.1 (35 disks) plus LAN Mgr Setup - these are copies not originals
Mastering Windows Programming with Borland C++4 (Sams - don't have the book though!)
Borland SQL Link for Windows for Interbase 3.3 (3 disk)
Paradox for Windows V 4.5 (2 disk)
Paradox for Windows Object Converters for Forms (1 disk)
Turbo C++ for Windows 3.1 (7 disks)
Proto Gen V2.2 (1 disk)
Adaptec 7800 Family Manager Set for Win NT 3.5 or Win 95/98 (3 disks)
CDs -
Adaptec EZ-SCSI Deluxe Edition V5
Easy CD Creator & DirectCD
All are untried and I have no means to read them, but have been stored in a clean
environment, some still in their original wrapping, free except for the cost of postage (I
am in the UK).
Regards Mike Norris

I would *VERY* *MUCH* /like/ to get my hands on Pathworks. I'd be quite
happy to pay for shipping for just them, or if you prefer, all of the
(unclaimed) disks.
I would be happy to cross ship other disks to other interested parties
(after imaging).

I wonder what snail mail postage to the greater Denver Colorado area in
the U.S.A. would be.

Well, actually... it said "Pathworks V5.1 (35 disks) plus LAN Mgr Setup."
So is it 5.1 or is it the 4.1 you have on Bitsavers?
An ISO of a 5.1 CD is at https://vetusware.com/download/Pathworks%205.1/?id=8935
if that's a real site.

Whatever happened to PRIVATE replies.
It isn't even that hard to do, you just have to copy their source adr from the
message, since this list's default reply is to the whole
fsckin' list
I could care less about this, and all it does is aggravate me to see someone hasn't
even bothered to look if this is already on line.

I did not feel the need for a private reply. I wanted to put my hand up
as interested in the disks, but I /also/ wanted to make it known that I
wanted someone else with a /need/ to have first dibs. I was speaking
both to Mike /and/ to the community at large.

Easy or hard has nothing to do with it when doing so is contrary to the
objective, as stated above.

You seem to be assuming incorrectly. I /have/ been keeping an eye out
for DEC PathWorks for 5+ years. I've not seen it when I've trolled
various file / abandonware sites many times. It's not uncommon for
things to be added to sites in between such trolls through the inventory.
As for bitsaveers, I had not looked /there/ because in my head I
associate them with /documentation/, and /not/ software. So ... why
would I look for software in -- what to me is -- a documentation repository?
Please don't assume that "someone hasn't even bothered to look". As
this is a perfect example if I have looked (in the wrong places)
multiple times.
Also note that I did not broadcast asking for it. I responded to
someone offering a copy of it.
If you don't care about the thread, use your email client's ability to
ignore the thread so that you don't see anything else from it. Don't
passively attack people that are participating in it.

That's why I have a procmail rule that fixes that:
REPLYTO_=`formail -cXReply-To: | cut -d',' -f1 | sed -e 's/Reply-To: //' |
sed -e 's/\"/\\\"/g'`
:0 fw
* ^To:.*classiccmp|^Cc:.*classiccmp
| sed -e 's/\[cctalk\] //g' | formail -i "From: $REPLYTO_" -i

Aside: You can remove use "-x" to extract the header without the
(Reply-To:) header. You can use "-z" to remove the space between the
(Reply-To:) header and it's value. Thus eliminating the need for the
first sed.
