9/30    Accidentally typed pin instead of pine.  What exactly does it do?
        no man pages available.
        \_ It's a stupid csua annoyance for anyone who typos any of several
           common commands that start with 'pin' such as ping and pine.  It
           might also possibly mark you as a pinhead to the low grade morons
           who write such crap and stick it in default path location.  Maybe
           they find it funny.  Maybe they find yermom jokes funny, too. Maybe
           they think it gives the csua character or something.  I dunno.
        \_ Check out http://www.dinkumware.com
           \_ Dikumware releases only the STL, no hash_table.
           I know they provide an STL implementation, so they may provide
        /csua/bin/pin
           believe they're free source though. -dans

           pinhead'
           \_ what is /csua/bin/rootshell?  It seems to be a perl script
              SIUD root.
        \_ in case no one spelled out it for you, read the fucking source.
           \_ Source?  It's a stupid 2 line script.  I wouldn't call that
              'source'.  It isn't even smart enough to check your current
              wall status and set it back if you're not normally reading
              the wall.  It's a stupid hyuck hyuck moron script.

9/26    I remember there was web version of the motd with search function
        (originally due to kchang ?).  The last time I used it it was hosted
        on the csua website but I can't remember its url (onset of dementia?)
        now. Can somebody plz post it, tnx.

9/4     It looks like there are some issues with wallall at the moment. Any
        plans for it getting fixed? I can run wall, but wallall just gives an
        error.
        \_ Asking questions on the motd will not get any attention from
           any undergrad. You should email politburo or perhaps csua. -ausman

Dinkum Libraries Dinkum Proofers Dinkum References Dinkum Support Dinkum Exam? Order On-Line NEW! Borland Adopts Dinkum C and C++ Libraries We're pleased to announce that Borland Software Corporation has licensed our libraries for their new line of C and C++ development tools. Click here to find out more. And watch for new announcements from 10 Borland in the coming months. NEW! For Serious Developers Need to support dozens of developers, on multiple platforms? Now you can get the same level of service that Dinkumware has offered our OEM customers for the past seven years. Our new Dinkum Developer Sublicense Agreement gives you the professional backing you need to deploy C and C++ applications with the best libraries available. You get access to our rich base of C and C++ source code, to configure just the development environments you need, plus guaranteed upgrades. You can even sublicense our products as needed to satisfy your most demanding customers. Click here to find out more. Windows CE. Intel C++ compiler for Windows. You get our industry-leading Standard C++, Abridged, and EC++ libraries -- with optional iterator debugging, multithreading, exception handling, and namespaces. You can use them with the existing VC++ C library, our C95 library or our C99 library. It's a natural companion to our highly portable Dinkum Unabridged Library, which works with most other popular compilers. Click here to find out more. C and C++ libraries in one convenient and highly portable package. You get our industry-leading Standard C++, Abridged, and EC++ libraries -- with optional iterator debugging, multithreading, exception handling, and namespaces. You can use them with an existing C library, our C95 library or our C99 library. And we've ported this package to most popular compilers, running on Windows and Unix-style systems from Mac OS/X to PC Linux to Sparc Solaris to IBM S/390. With Comeau C++, we now offer the world's first completely conforming C++ and C99 implementations. Click here to find out more. Standard C++ Library. It features portable support for multi-threading, several alternative allocators for different memory-management strategies, and an assortment of the most-used multibyte/wide-character code conversions. Click here to find out more. Standard C Libraries Compared Most programmers assume that all Standard C libraries are reasonably conforming and complete. That may have been mostly true before Amendment 1 (1995) Standard C++ additions (1998), and the revised C Standard (1999), but it's far from true today. Using our new Dinkum Quick Proofer, we've tested a number of widely used C libraries to produce a unique overview of current C library technology. Click here to find out more. Standard C++ Libraries Compared It's been over two years since The C/C++ Users Journal ranked the major C++ implementations for conformance to the C++ Standard, so we decided to provide an update. We found Perennial's C++VS and our own Dinkum C++ Proofer to give pretty consistent results. The only completely conforming libraries today are from Dinkumware. They easily outranked other commercial libraries, such as from Rogue Wave, as well as no-cost add-ons, such as STLport and LibStdc++. Click here to find out more. Try Before You Buy The Dinkum Exam Page lets you compile and link your own test code against our various libraries. Find out whether your code truly conforms to the C++ or C Standards, or to the EC++ Technical Specification. See how close our Windows CE library matches the VC++ desktop environment. Learn first hand what compiled Java can do for your small or embedded programs. Click here to give it a try. Manuals for C++, C99, EC++, CoreX, and Java We offer our latest HTML Library References for C++, C99, EC++, CoreX, and Java for your perusal right here at our website. You can purchase the first three of these, as our Dinkum Unabridged Library, for immediate download. They make a convenient reference while you work. They even look good on handhelds. We also offer deep discounts for use by multiple developers. Click here to find out more. Java^ Compiler Technology from Dinkumware and EDG You can combine JFE, the 20 Edison Design Group Java front end, along with the 21 Dinkum Jcore Library, for a true compiled Java environment. The JFE/Jcore combination are the result of our joint development 22 project with EDG. Read about our novel approach to 23 compiling Java code just like C. Posix Locales for Dinkum C The Dinkum C Library has long featured rich support for tailorable locales. We provide, as a free upgrade, the dozens of Western locales collected over the years by SC22/WG15 (Posix) in a form directly usable by our C Library customers. They're equally accessible from C++ if you license our Dinkum Unabridged Library. Teach your code to print dates in Finnish, or to order text by Spanish rules. Click here to find out more. Our Track Record We're the folks who supply the Standard C++ library that ships with Microsoft VC++, and we've done so for the past seven years. We're also the leading supplier of C++ and EC++ libraries to the embedded community. We offer the only commercially supported Standard C and C99 libraries not tied to a specific compiler, and we offer the only libraries that conform completely to the C++ and C99 Standards. To learn more about us, see our recent 25 press releases and a partial list of our 26 customers and partners. Our Expertise We at Dinkumware have particular expertise on the Standard C, C++, and Java 27 libraries. We tracked the development of Standard C++ through its final stages, upgrading our 28 documentation, source code, and testing tools 29 (Proofers) to match it at each stage. We've also upgraded our mature and successful Standard C Library to match the recently revised C Standard (C99). And our Jcore Library is tracking the evolving Java specification. As the choice of leading software vendors, our products may well be just what you need to stay up to date with C, C++, and Java. Dinkumware, Ltd. Copyright 1996-2003 by Dinkumware, Ltd.
