Short: *PRELIMINARY* information about the new WPL front end language. type: comm/fido uploader: aa302@freenet.carleton.ca (Russell McOrmond) This language is an attempt to provide an open-access networking language for configuring front end/point/etc mailers. It features multi-threaded, multi-addressed, multi-network support via various extendable libraries. Some parts of this language are derivatives of the old application 'Welmat' and part of the Welmat code is still contained within an XPR library called 'xprfts.library' already publicly available. This is not a binary, and is intended to give people a bit of information about what we are doing. If you are interested, please contact myself, or join the support conference (Currently we have taken over the fidonet backbone conference 'WELMAT' since many of the current beta testers are old Welmat users) WPL_Intro.lzh is available for fidonet file request from fidonet#1:1/139 and is updated nightly. ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 2091 1036 50.4% 21-Dec-92 15:54:00 readme.intro 588 424 27.8% 23-Sep-92 19:45:52 rexx/call.rexx 2178 979 55.0% 10-Jan-93 00:39:30 rexx/fidopoll.rexx 3157 1212 61.6% 23-Jun-92 13:13:14 rexx/newlog.rexx 1023 654 36.0% 10-Jul-92 21:28:30 rexx/uulookup.welmat 1506 825 45.2% 10-Jan-93 00:39:56 rexx/uupoll.rexx 2754 984 64.2% 30-Sep-92 19:46:04 rexx/wpllc.rexx : From:fidonet#1:163/109.36 File:wpllc.rexx 595 340 42.8% 22-Jul-92 13:40:34 rexx/wsched.rexx 62044 22757 63.3% 20-Dec-92 21:02:36 wpl.readme 25524 9062 64.4% 10-Jan-93 16:52:54 wpl/atronx.wpl 43164 14636 66.0% 17-Dec-92 10:57:40 wpl/roof.wpl : Roof WPL util: Welmat WPL Language File for Roof Williamson 49.62 -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 144624 52909 63.4% 22-Jan-93 20:39:46 11 files
