Send administrative mail to info-mac-request@sumex-aim.stanford.edu. ------- LabVIEW ------- Info-LabVIEW, for users of National Instruments' LabVIEW for the Macintosh. To subscribe email to . List submissions go to . --------- AppleTalk --------- bInfo-AppleTalk, essentially based on the use of CAP (Columbia AppleTalk Package), a Unix AppleShare Server, various Ethernet<->LocalTalk gateways, and, of course, good old AppleTalk itself. To subscribe, email to , to post, email to . -------- PageMaker -------- Dwight, you might want to add PAGEMAKR out of INDYCMS to your list of Mac interest lists. Although it is not entirely Mac, some people try to do Pagemaker under Windows, it has been very useful to me as a Mac user. Some of the discussions have centered around clip art, printers, scanners and the like. You subcribe by request to LISTSERV at INDYCMS.IUPUI.EDU or INDYCMS (for BITNET). -------------- Microsoft Word ------------- WORD-MAC is a moderated list for discussion of Microsoft Word for the Macintosh. Send Word-related articles/questions/answers to WORD-MAC@ACC.HAVERFORD.EDU Send requests to SUBSCRIBE/UNSUBSCRIBE WORD-MAC or to receive files to MAILSERV@ACC.HAVERFORD.EDU For a description of valid commands and syntax, send a mail message with the command HELP in the body of the message to MAILSERV@ACC.HAVERFORD.EDU Send files to be posted or questions/comments about the list to A_HILL@ACC.HAVERFORD.EDU --------- HyperCard --------- HYPERCRD@PURCCVM.BITNET Mailing list to discuss anything and everything about HyperCard for Apple Macintosh microcomputers. The list is open and unmoderated. To join, send email to LISTSERV@PURCCVM.BITNET. Ignore the "Subject:" line, and send a one-line message as follows: SUBSCRIBE HYPERCRD Your_Name ----------------- MacroMind Director ----------------- Direct-L on LISTSERV@uafsysb or LISTSERV@uafsysb.uark.edu The DIRECT-L list was formed to provide a forum for discussions of the software program MacroMind Director for the Macintosh. This will be an unmoderated list with archives. Archives of DIRECT-L will be stored in the DIRECT-L FILELIST. To receive a list of files send the command INDEX DIRECT-L to LISTSERV@UAFSYSB To subscribe to DIRECT-L, send the following command to LISTSERV@UAFSYSB via mail text or interactive message: SUBSCRIBE DIRECT-L Your_full_name -------- Prograph ------- info-prograph@grove.iup.edu Users of the Macintosh programming language Prograph now have their own Internet list! To subscribe to this new list, send an Email message to info-prograph-request@grove.iup.edu We aren't using any automated subscription process, so no special syntax is required. Just say you want to subscribe, and I'll add your name to the list. ----------- Programming ----------- MACPROG@WUVMD.WUSTL.EDU Hosted by Washington University, the MACPROG list is the Internet answer to the excellent Usenet programming forum. Hopefully the easier access of an Internet-based list will promote even better communication between Macintosh developers of commercial, in-house, and shareware software. In addition, this list will move some of the more technical topics out from lists devoted to user-oriented issues. The focus of MacProg will be to discuss mainstream language coding techniques. What's a mainstream language? C & Pascal principally, although other languages like LISP, Prologue, Fortran, Basic, HyperTalk, and application scripting are certainly welcome. Send mail to LISTSERV@WUVMD.WUSTL.EDU or LISTSERV@WUVMD.BITNET with the following command in the BODY of the mail: SUBSCRIBE MACPROG your name ------------ Mac Security ----------- mac-security@eclectic.com MacIntosh Security If you're interested in joining the list, please send a message to: mac-security-request@eclectic.com Contributions to the list should go to: mac-security@eclectic.com ------------------- Macintosh in Turkey ------------------ MacTurk%TRBOUN.BITNET@CUNYVM.CUNY.EDU MacTurk@TRBOUN The list will deal on Academic Computing on MacIntosh Environment in Turkey (which is derived from the Workshop under the same name, on May 14-16, Istanbul, Bogazici University).
