Starting with the current (new) issue (August 1992), all program sources for _VAX Professional_ articles will be available from a special file server here at WKU. For more information about the _VAX Professional_ file server, send the command HELP in the *body* of a mail message to VAX-PRO@WKUVX1.BITNET. Note: there is no charge for these files, and you do not have to have a subscription to _VAX Professional_ to receive the files. However, the articles are frequently the only documentation for the source listings, so a subscription to the magazine would be helpful. The VAX-PRO file server is a free service of Western Kentucky University and Professional Press. As many of you know, my only affiliation with Professional Press is as a regular author. However, I saw a need for wider distribution of the programs and the _VAX Professional_ editor agreed, hence the server. We hope you find it useful. If you'd like to contact Professional Press regarding the file server, please direct your e-mail to Karen Detwiler at detwiler@proeast.propress.com. Technical problems with the file server should be directed to me. Hunter ------ Hunter Goatley, VMS Systems Programmer, Western Kentucky University goathunter@WKUVX1.BITNET, 502-745-5251
