248.0. "USENET mod.recipes ?" by BLOTT::WARWICK (Trevor Warwick) Wed Apr 09 1986 12:30

    
    	Has anyone been receiving the Usenet mod.recipes articles, and
    also been in possession of a Unix(tm) system to format them on?
    I've seen a couple of recipes I'd like to try, but it doesn't make
    them very easy to read when the instructions are interleaved with
    all sorts of gobbledygook for nroff.
    
    	If anyone has the formatted cookbook, how about putting it on
    the net ?

248.8... but it prints funnyCRVAX1::KAPLOWBob Kaplow - DDOWed Apr 30 1986 19:2216
        I pulled the cookbook over to my system and printed it out. It
        seems to be formated with multiple <cr> in place of <ff>
        characters, and when printed it does a very poor job of page
        alligning itself on the printer. 
        
        It also seems to be full of _s_t_r_i_n_g_s _l_i_k_e _t_h_i_s,
        aparantly trying to indicate underlining, bolding, or something
        that do nothing on a line printer, except cause the rest of the
        line to be lost. 
        
        Anyone know why, or have a way to fix it, before I bother to hack
        it myself with EDT? 
        
        BTW, it might not be a bad idea to post the index to the cookbook
        here, so noters can see what is there without copying the entire
        book.

248.19Try this out!KAOA05::PURDIEMon Feb 02 1987 16:0213
    If anyone else out there is having trouble copying over the edited
    version of the cookbook, here is a solution. Copy over the original
    unedited version. Using EDT , issue the following two command one
    after the other in command mode
    1)sub/Cntrl(h)//wh    The Cntrl(h) is the actual key stroke entered
    			  here. It will show up as ^H.
    2)sub/_//wh		  This will get rid of all the underlining.
    
    The index still comes out a slightly strange but all the recipes
    are perfectly legible.
    This will give you a printable version of the file which you can
    then do with as you please.

You can get a copy from PSTJTT::COOKBOOK.MEM -- note that there is no
disk name or account in the file specification; all you need is the node 
and filename.  Trust me.  There's another file PSTJTT::COOKS.TXT that 
seems to be a compilation of recipies from this file.  I'd give the 
compiler credit, but I don't remember where I got it from.  It's a 
couple of years old, so it won't have the recent entries.

248.28Look on DECWRL::"pub/recipes"DECWET::NEWKERKFor every vision, there is an equal but opposite revision.Thu Oct 18 1990 21:0718
I think that these recipes can be copied from DECWRL::"/pub/recipes".

Note that DECWRL is an Ultrix machine and the syntax to copy these files
is different.

Try

$ dir decwrl::"/pub/recipes"

for a listing of the files and make sure that the quoted text is in lower
case.

To copy a file or files

$ copy decwrl::"/pub/recipes/welshcakes" *	or

$ copy decwrl::"/pub/recipes/*" *
