UUPC uuio.exe Source Code README file by Stephen C. Trier This directory contains a section of the program code from the UUPC-post-1.0-interim UUCP package. Compile this code with make to build the uuio.exe program that provides communications with your neighboring systems. This version of uuio is somewhat different from the standard UUPC version. Instead of containing the pcmail.c software, it does a spawn() call to MS-DOS to start an external rmail program. In this case, that program is smail, in its rmail.exe form. News handling has also been changed slightly. Rather than handling all rnews requests internally, uuio now tries to spawn() an external rnews program. If this attempt fails, it will process the article in its own limited way, throwing it into the news directory with a unique numerical filename. In this manner, I hope to make it easier for those people who wish to write their own rnews programs. Copyrights for the UUPC software are held by Richard Lamb and Stuart Lynne, 1985-1987.
