USE OF STANFORD SYSTEM FROM THE NETWORK

1. WE DON'T EXPECT HEAVY OUTSIDE USE  OF  THIS  SYSTEM,
  BECAUSE  IT  IS  ONE OF THE MOST HEAVILY USED SYSTEMS
  ALREADY.  HERE ARE SOME FACILITIES.

2. USER  FILE  AREAS  ARE  DESIGNATED  BY  PROJECT  AND
  PROGRAMMER  NAMES.  THUS THIS AREA IS [NET,GUE] WHERE
  GUE STANDS FOR GUEST IF YOU HAVEN'T GUESSED.

3. THE LOGIN COMMAND IS "L <PROJECT>.<PROGRAMMER>".

4. THE LOGOUT COMMAND IS K.

5. ALL  SYSTEM  COMMANDS  ARE  ACTIVATED  BY  <CARRIAGE
  RETURN>.

6. EXTENSIVE USE OF THE SYSTEM SHOULD BE OK'D BY

	LESTER EARNEST
	ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE PROJECT
	COMPUTER SCIENCE DEPARTMENT
	STANFORD, CALIFORNIA 94305
	(415)497-4202.

7. TO SEND A MESSAGE TO A STANFORD USER  THAT  HE  WILL
  GET THE NEXT TIME HE LOGS IN, USE THE COMMAND

	MAIL <PROGRAMMER>

  AND FOLLOW  THE  SUBSEQUENT INSTRUCTIONS.    MCCARTHY
  IS JMC, AND EARNEST  IS LES,  REPORT REQUESTS  SHOULD
  BE  DIRECTED  TO  PAW (PATTE WOOD).  TROUBLE  REPORTS
  WITH  THE  TIME-SHARING  SYSTEM  SHOULD  BE  DIRECTED
  TO  REG (RALPH  GORIN), AND  WITH THE  NETWORK TO JBR
  (JEFF RUBIN).

8.  "HELP <COMMAND>" MAY GET YOU INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO
 USE  A  FEW COMMON COMMANDS AND PROGRAMS, BUT THE HELP
 SYSTEM IS NOT IN GOOD SHAPE.

9.  TO  GET  BACK  TO  THE  SYSTEM  FROM  A PROGRAM USE
  <CONTROL C>. <CONTROL O> HALTS TYPE OUT, AND THE TYPE
  OUT  CAN  BE SUBSEQUENTLY RESUMED BY ANOTHER <CONTROL
  O>.

10.              FILES      ARE      DESIGNATED      BY
  <NAME1>(.<NAME2>)([<PROJECT>,<PROGRAMMER>]).    THUS,
  THIS FILE IS SYSTEM.USE[NET,GUE].  THE [...,...]  CAN
  BE  OMITTED  IF  THE  USER  IS  LOGGED  IN UNDER THAT
  <PROJ,PROG>.

11. "TYPE <FILE>" WILL DO JUST THAT.

12. WE  HAVE  AN  IMPLEMENTATION OF  THE  FILE TRANSFER
  PROTOCOL WHICH WORKS. 

13.  DIR WILL LIST A DIRECTORY. DIR [PRJ,PRG] WILL LIST
 A  PARTICULAR  USER'S  DIRECTORY.  DIR [S,DOC] AND DIR
 [UP,DOC]  WILL  LIST  THE  NAMES  OF   SOME   OF   OUR
 DOCUMENTATION FILES.

14. THERE IS NO COMPUTER OPERATOR HERE, NOR A PROVISION
 FOR HUMAN ASSISTANCE OF ANY SORT ONLINE.  YOU CAN SEND
 A MESSAGE TO A PARTICULAR LOGGED-IN USER BY TYPING

	SEND <PROGRAMMER>

 AND THEN THE MESSAGE;  THE "WHO" COMMAND WILL TELL YOU
 WHO IS LOGGED IN AND WHAT THEY ARE DOING.

15. OUR SYSTEM LOAD  IS  HEAVIEST  WEEK-DAY AFTERNOONS.
   NETWORK USE IS DISCOURAGED DURING THESE TIMES. GAMES
   OF ALL KINDS ARE ESPECIALLY DISCOURAGED,  AS ARE APE
   AND PARRY.

16. THE  FILE MONCOM.BH[S,DOC]  IS  THE MONITOR COMMAND
   MANUAL AND CONTAINS DETAILED  DESCRIPTIONS OF HOW TO
   USE  THE  SYSTEM.   IT  IS  RATHER  LONG  AND  IT IS
   RECOMMENDED THAT IT BE RETRIEVED VIA FTP RATHER THAN
   READ ON LINE.

17. THOSE USERS WHO ARE INTERESTED  IN WRITING PROGRAMS
   THAT MAKE USE OF UUOS DIRECTLY MAY FIND A DESCRIPTION
   OF HOW THEY WORK IN UUO.ME[S,DOC].  THIS FILE IS ALSO
   VERY LONG AND SHOULD BE RETRIEVED WITH FTP.

18. NOTE: THE TWO DOCUMENTS MENTIONED ABOVE USE GRAPHIC
   CHARACTERS FROM THE EXTENDED STANFORD CHARACTER SET,
   INCLUDING  CODES  WHICH ARE NON-PRINTING IN STANDARD
   ASCII.  BEWARE WHEN PRINTING THEM!
