Dear Control Strip Supporters:
This is the Control Strip Modules Archive Maintainer. I have been very
busy because of the Midterm Exams. As many of you have already known, the
archive has came back online since the 30th of January. However, the plan
of moving the archive to a SparcStation has "again" been delayed due to
the difficulties in finding certain custom cables.
This archive will be moved again around the end of May 1995, I will post
to comp.sys.mac.system and comp.sys.mac.misc as well as send announcments
to the info-mac mailing list when it changes. So keep your eyes open and
you should be aware of the happenings. Also, you may finger me at
for the most up-to-date information about me and the
status-location of this archive.
FYI, the current archive address is at
matrix29.wallach.reshall.columbia.edu
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
128.59.234.13
For your conveniences, I will resubmit the newest Fetch and Anarchie
bookmarks along with this letter to both Umich and Sumex for your
conveniences. If you wish, you may drop me emails, and I will mail you
those bookmarks as attachments.
If you have any questions, suggestions, or problems about this archive,
please send email to me .
Once again, thank you so much for supporting Control Strip and this
Archive.

And here is a recap for those who are new to this.
Hi, Control Strip Fans:
Welcome to the first "Control Strip Module Archive" on the net(as far as I
know and hope)
It will run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week until the endof May 1995 (I will have an IP address change then, so just email me and i
will send you the new site address)
To ensure that this archive is up-to-date, I will be compiling Freeware,
Shareware, and "any-other-ware" Modules off the net, CompuServe, America
OnLine, etc. on a regular basis(ususally dialy). However, Control Strip
Developers, please upload or emai me your new module(s), and It will be
available to the net within 1-4 hours.
The modules contained in this archive are NOT commerical softwares.
I would like to thank the following people for their advice and support:

In response to Bill Sawrey's dismay at FileMaker Pro, I post the replies I
received last week. I requested some information on databases for storing
information concerning the maps, diagrams & drawings we produce. Thanks for
all the replies folks - they don't reach any real conclusion though. From
the replies, and talking to a few fellow cartographers over here, FileMaker
Pro seems favorite, but sometimes I almost feel that it was easier in the
days of drafting film & pens ...
Apologies in advance for the length of this posting,
Graham
