INFO.TXT, was Re: [HECnet] UPDATE: HECNET.HLP file for VMS systems

[Joe Ferraro]

I've been away for   1000 HECnet messages or so (which seems to be a week's time these days), as well... trying to catch up...

So Sampsa... you are going to crawl the "net" for info.txt, and pull it into your host info parsing script? Or do we need to submit something to you? Apologies, I didn't have time to read the backlog... if you are seeking "permission" to include a host, feel free to include wopr:: or any of the hosts from 20... 

If someone does get a quick doc out there... be sure to summarize the msgs regarding the help file as well... please :)

   So what's supposed to be in this INFO.TXT file that everyone's been
talking about lately?   I think I may be too much of a newcomer here to
know about it.   Where should it be, and what should it contain?
