I've been asked to supply more specific directions for automated fetching of the source and documentation for "agrep," the powerful similarity pattern matching tool. It is at cs.arizona.edu 192.12.69.5 in directory /agrep/README /agrep/agrep-2.04.tar.Z /agrep/agrep.ps.1.Z /agrep/agrep.ps.2.Z (The .ps suffixed files are the optional postscript docs; a reasonably good research report with benchmarks is included.) Note for Macintosh MPW users: after a few hours of drudgery, I ported the tool to MPW 3.2.3 running under System 7.1. If you would like me to e-mail a binhexed copy of the tool suitable for dropping in to your MPW/tools folder, please write... I've been having lots of fun picking up the "lost" references to things I'm interested in. For example, starting a search like: agrep -1 -i 'Burning Chrome' cyberpunkspool immediately finds references like 'burning crome' that I have always missed before. See how many times John Gilmore's name is mentioned in the CUD archives (and how often misspelled). How about _your_ name? As usual, I will e-mail the uuencoded tar.Z upon request if you cannot do anonymous FTP.
