Hi all, Last semester, I posted to ask if anyone had compiled the source for Gifscii for the Mac using CodeWarrior. I wanted a native version of it because the 68k one was really slow. No one knew. I would have done it at the time, but I didn't have CW. Well, I do now and I compiled it for the PPC so if anyone's interested, let me know. Also could someone tell me how to post it to some other FTP site or something? I have never done that before. Thanks, - Michael -- Michael Bishop Couzens Hall # 5331 313.764.7847 mbi...@umich.edu ____________________________________________________________________________/ Home Page: http://www.rescomp.housing.umich.edu/users/mbishop/mbishop.html ____________________________________________________________________________/ V E R Y T A K E N PowerTalk: Mic...@aoce.itd.umich.edu

You could post it to Stanford's Sumex-Aim, the largest and most complete archive for mac shareware and freeware. Here's part of the info i got from their mailing: ------------------- The Info-Mac Archive is available at 50 public and private sites around the world. For the site list, request it by mail (address below), or try: gopher://sumex-aim.stanford.edu/info-mac/help/mirror-list.txt Also accessible by ftp. Help files and indexes are also in info-mac/help/. Mail administrative queries and info to inf...@sumex-aim.stanford.edu Mail articles for publication in the digest to inf...@sumex-aim.stanford.edu Mail files for inclusion in the archives to mac...@sumex-aim.stanford.edu To submit a file greater than 800K, or to avoid submitting by (and segmenting for) email, send email describing the file to bac...@sumex-aim.stanford.edu and upload it to: ftp://daemon.ncsa.uiuc.edu/Incoming As with emailed submissions, non-text files must be binhexed. ------------------- when you send it in, include a description to the file you are sending in, cause they archive it and the daemon automatically puts your mail message into the digest which comes out every few days, telling people what is new on the site. Make sure the file is binhexed. Also, do you know where a 68k ver is? i'm still on my fly IIsi, so i would not have much use for a PPC version, yet. Geoff Hoffman gch...@cornell.edu

Also, if you could put a copy in my incoming folder, I will put it in the GIfscii folder in my FTP-Gopher site here. Go to ftp.wwa.com and put it in pub/incoming/ScareCrow Thanks. -- . + ' . * . .
