What's New at Wimsey

People, places and things around Wimsey. This column will look at Wimsey and the people that make it function.

Library on line: We dropped into the Port Moody public library today to speak with Brian Pulham the Chief Librarian. Lo and behold, there was a computer set up with a modem and sporting Moasic and Wimsey's home page right out in the main display area ready for patrons to browse the WEB with. We think this is a first for the Greater Vancouver area. Watch for the library to enter the electronic publishing arena with information and schedules some time in the not too distant future.; We will be doing introductory seminars on August 9th and 17th at the Port Moody library. These are aimed at people who have never experienced the Internet, so tell your friends. Registration at 939-6955 (you might have to wait a couple of days for them to get it set up). The seminars will be in the evening and space is limited.
New Mail Spool File: For those of you who telnet to or log on interactively to our system (rather than using just SLIP/PPP and the mail and news clients on your machine) will soon notice a new file in your home directory and a minor change to your .profile file. The mail spool file was /usr/spool/mail/{yourid}. It will now be in your home directory as .mailfile.; The
MAIL=/usr/spool/mail/$LOGNAME
entry in your .profile will be changed to reflect this.
