#Missing Program
8 messages in this thread
In early November I uploaded a patch librarian program to the music section
data library called PATLIB.ARC. I can no longer locate it. Wha hoppen?
-Thanks,
Rod
Rod,
Lots of changes have happened since then; for example, the sound library has
moved. There are now two sound libraries, a data library (DL5), and a program
library (DL15).
Your program exists as PATCHL.ARC in DL15, uploaded on 02-NOV-86. As to the
name change (if you are _sure_ you called it "PATLIB"), I cannot comment… Don
is in primary charge of the DLs; perhaps he thought PATCHL was more
descriptive.
At any rate, rest easy, it is there!
Nybbles,

Thanks Rick, I really just wanted to know where to reference folk who'll need
it for the patches I just uploaded. –and apparrently I need to "discover" the
new dls. I'm innocent of any beyond dl9.

Rod,
Oh boy, then you have surprises waiting for you! 8)
At the Function: prompt, type LN for a list of all the data libraries — LN is
another new Sigware feature — and you'll see that we've added quite a bit. And
if you haven't already done so, do make sure you have all the message base
subtopics you are intersted in enabled as well.
I've been on CIS through many an update, but between the free upload time and
the last two Sigware changes, I have to believe that CIS is really trying to be
a better place for everyone. Hope you like the changes.

Actually, there is a bug in the current software. LN will not show any DLs
higher than the highest sub-topic. Which means that if you do an LN you will
not see DLs 15 and 16. For now, the best method to see all of them is to go
into a DL and type DL?
Steve,
Then the programmers have fixed it since you last tried it. I tried it in the
process of answering the question, to locate the proper DL… and again, just
now, before typing this reply. The _only_ DL not listed by LN is DL14; 15 and
16 _are_ listed.
Busy little beavers, them CIS programmers. 8)
Nybbles!
Sorry Rick — WRONG! As a sysop you have access to ALL sections — even those
that are closed to the public (to be used for future expansion). Because you
have access to non-existant msg sections 15-16 you see the DLs 15 and 16. The
highest public message section is 11 (with 12 being the Programmer's Network).
Tell ya want — I'll go set things up so you'll see what everyone else does —
you'll see the bug.
Steve,
Hope this comes thru okay, I'm having modem problems at home… xmit seems okay
but rcv is awful… it's RF bleed from a nearby FM station today.
<Sigh> I guess I still don't have the hang of this sysop stuff (no surprise to
me, really). Okay, I stand corrected and yield to your superior knowledge.
<Looking at score card> Lessee, you got me on LN, I got you on leap years, you
got me on, um, looks like we're about 4 and 4 right now. <Grin>
Nybbles,
