Subject: WinWAIS 2.1


I've received from mail indicating that some folks didn't pick up the
first message about WinWAIS 2.1 availability.  Follow-ups didn't include
the particulars, so I'll repeat the basics here:

WinWAIS 2.1 includes support for both public domain tcp via Waterloo TCP
and Clarkson drivers, as well as Windows Socket (winsock.dll) support.
The winsock has only been tested with a couple of implementations, so
I'd appreciate very much hearing about any problems encountered.  Support
for multiple document types is also included, as well as a few fixes
to bugs encountered in 2.0.  Full source code is available:

  >ftp ridgisd.er.usgs.gov (130.11.48.107)
  >user anonymous
  >pswd anything
  >cd software/wais
  >type binary
  >get wnwais21.zip (for executables only)
    or
  >get wnwsrc21.zip (for source and executables)

wnwais21 should be unzipped into an intermediate direcctory or to a floppy
disk.Installation is then completed by running setup from within windows:

  c:\tempwais\setup

wnwsrc21 should be unzipped using the -d option to create several
subdirectories.  Subdirectory names and contents are described in the file
named readme.txt.

Enjoy!!
