1475.0. "On-line CD catalogue." by IJSAPL::MCADOO (Alan McAdoo 5�) Fri Jan 13 1989 04:05

    CD cataloguers,
    
    I have just received an update to my CD catalogue (classical and pop).
    Although I am prohibited to give away the catalogue search program (it
    runs on an IBM-PC), I am permitted to give away the printout.
    
    So for a limited period, (till someone deletes the file), two files are
    available on node ijsapl, they are ijsapl""::cdc.txt and
    ijsapl""::cdp.txt. i.e. cdc = class, cdp = pop.
     
    The catalogue contains the following fields : Artist, Title, Price,
    local code, Reference number, Release date.
    
    Now the bad news : this is from a Dutch Catalogue - e.g. balletmuziek
    translates to Pepsi-Cola etc.. The files are huge, e.g. 2200 blocks and
    2900 blocks. The price is in guilders, (2 guilders=$1). Also the
    records are 132 characters long -it was a printout.
    
    Hope someone finds this useful.

    CD cataloguers,

    I have just heard that ijsapl has problems and probably will go
    down this weekend. Therefore I have copied the catalogues to another
    node , hlpg10.
    
    Therefore  if ijsapl gives you problems try hlpg10.
    
    i.e. copy hlpg10::cd*.txt []
    
    regards
