From Vladimir Larkov To Denis Parinov 23 December 1997

Hello, Denis! Thu 18-Dec-97 01:47, Denis Parinov (2:5030/529.13) wrote a letter to Paul Falcon: DP> there is a problem. In theory, we need to make a tosser for PKT.

The tosser is the intermediate link between the PCT and the editor. He scatters letters from pkt according to the database. The format of the database should also be understandable to the editor. There is something on the pussy at least four database formats. The simplest one is fidomsg - each aria in its own directory, each letter is a separate file in this directory. Tosser is doing and the reverse process - exports fresh letters (written by you) from the database to pct. Therefore, you need to write both the tosser and the editor together. You can, of course, store letters to PKT and train the editor in this particular format, but this is unsportsmanlike - letters from one aria will be lying around in different packages, whereas in the database they are all lie in the required aria. With best wishes, Vladimir.

From there they download points, etc. So I say that a tosser would be nice for human work. And don't the hub will “glue”. Look - we have several pkt from, say, a point. I went tossing. (In this example you are a node and it is assumed that there is already a tosser). B These pkt'shki say 30 letters in 6 arias. Five each. What does the tosser do: takes the first letter and looks at which aria. Let's say in SALE. Tosser is watching The level of this point for recording in this aria. Let's say the level for aria is atyou have 9000, and the point has 10000, therefore the point has the right to write to this echo. We begin to process the letter. Let's see who is subscribed to this aria. Let's say three your point and one hub. We throw this letter into some temp pkts for everyone four (and to your database, if you read it yourself). Let's take the trail. letter. Let's say it's in GENERAL. Again, look at the point level. 8000, and you have 10000. Therefore, the point has no right to write to this echo. The letter is postponed to BAD aria with the corresponding postscript. (In the future, if you raise this point level, accordingly allowing writing to this aria, a letter from a bad aria can be will re-suck. And then it will fall where it needs to). The next letter to the CODE aria, You have two subscribers to it. This means we assign it only to pkts for these two. All letters are processed this way. At the end we have personal pkt for each of your links plus the latest letters in your database (in those echoes which you yourself read). Bundles for the mailer are being created. Tossing is over. (was If there was an archiver - at the end there would be a package of pkt's). PS: bundle is a file with full paths and file names. During the session, the soaper scans bundles and gives files to links according to what is written in the bundles. After After this, the transferred files are either erased or reset. Depending on the first character at the beginning of the line in the bundle.ZZY: FTN technology is quite well thought out - is it worth reinventing your own wheel? With best wishes, Vladimir.

In isdos the disk is 800 kilos. We keep the mailer/tosser in the frame (208 kg is enough IMHO). Disk "A" is your base. If not let it grow half a meter, then 300 kilos are left for reception/tempo. Disk "B" - outbound on links. Divide 800 kilos by the number of links - how much is there on average? points on the node? In addition, after sending the link, the space occupied package, released. With best wishes, Vladimir.

Don’t forget, the tosser is written only for TR-Dos, and under its is-dos no one is going to rewrite it. In addition, you still need a mailer. And it’s not even under tr-dos... :( VL> With best wishes, Vladimir.Sincerely yours, Arny Sinen from -=VS prog=- -+- SMM version 1.05
