purpose		: describe fix03 kit
date		: July 28, 1994
--------------------------------

This kit is entitled fix03 and contains all of the fixes that
I have implemented to Cohulip since its release.

--------------------------------


ERRATA: 
The README file for cohulip speaks of using telunix
for remote login services and states that terminal control
should be set with:
	stty -icanon -echo min1

This setting hould be:
	stty -icanon -echo min 1 

--------------------------------

NEW:
slip.c has been fixed to overcome "hung" slip sessions. sys5_io.c
has been fixed to allow running net from a terminal. The ftp
files have been fixed to add a prompt, a hash function, a bell
function and an in-session help function. A file searching
algorithm is fixed to allow finger and smpt to operate correctly.
It also fixes a problem that can occur when running net as
/usr/bin/net with a full path. The keyboard would not respond,
but now it does with the new main.c.

-------------------------------
INSTRUCTIONS:

1.  verify the length and then copy the following files into 
    your cohulip src subdirectory:

	file		length		sum
	-----------------------------------------
	ftp.c		 8318		22583 17
	ftp.h		 1717		 6016  4
	ftpcli.c	18649		62557 37
	ftpserv.c	19110		43566 39
	slip.c		11626		48730 23
	sys5_io.c	11692		50274 23
	ndir.h		 1372		44524  3
	sys5unix.c	 7117		13978 14
	main.c		30346		10971 60
	-----------------------------------------

2. Then cd to the cohulip src subdirectory and run the command:
	make

3. The new binary for "net" will be created in the src subdirectory.
   Test it by running:
	./net <startupfile>
   where <startupfile> is the name of your usual startup file.

   Try out the ftp client. It now has a prompt. A bell option
   to beep you when a file transfer is completed is toggled off
   and on by the ftp> command "bell". A hash option that will 
   print a '#' for each kilobyte transfered is toggled with the
   ftp> hash command. A list of ftp options is available at the
   ftp> command line by entering either "?" or "help". (command
   listed here should be entered with quote marks). 

   If you have the facilites for doing so, run net from a
   terminal logged in on a serial port, and try running net
   from within an xterm. 

4. If you are satisfied with the new binary, copy ./net to
   /usr/bin. If you encounter difficulties, you can email
   me at rw@rwsys.wimsey.bc.ca
