The DOS version is shareware that is made available in binary form at many locations so you can 'try before you buy'. The UNIX version is available as source code only, and there is no provision to 'try before you buy'. However, the look and feel of the two versions are almost identical, so the DOS version serves as a 'try' version.

Waffle is a USENET-compatible BBS system which supports UUCP mail, UUCP, and USENET news. In addition, there is a built-in editor, file upload/download, and the ability to hook in external programs and gateway to (or from) other packages. DOS Waffle supports (but does not require) external Fossil drivers to allow use of high speed modems and allows an MSDOS PC to be a fully RFC compliant USENET node. It also provides the UUCP-based transport mechanism that generally comes with unix systems.

Waffle (DOS version) is available via anonymous ftp from (the old) SimTel and its various mirror sites as follows: There are other Coast/SimTel mirror sites. See the periodic postings in comp.archives.msdos.announce and news.answers for more details. halcyon mirrors (keeps a current copy of) the (old) simtel waffle files, the simtel offline-mail files, and the tau-ceti fx suite. it's your one-stop waffle ftp site.

The intent of this document is to assemble, in one place, a general list of Waffle-related Frequently Asked Questions.

Don't be shy, there's a lot of expertise in c.b.w . That's what it's there for. However, be sure that you have looked through all the documentation before posting your question; you will not be appreciated if you ask a question that is clearly answered in the documentation (or in the FAQ, for that matter.)

Yes. [Updated answer: unless you have a cheque, probably not] [Further updated answer: sometimes -- work seems to have become much more reasonable] He's also reachable via e-mail at <dell@goonsquad.spies.com>. Be aware that Tom gets LOTS of mail, so replies usually take a while. [lately, ranging from eternity to a few hours(!)] In general, normal questions to comp.bbs.waffle will get quite a few responses in a very timely manner.

It's hard to say since there are sites that are unregistered, not in the UUCP maps, and/or are mail-only and do not exchange news. Occasionally, someone counted how many Waffle sites have posted to USENET in the past 2 weeks. Bill Fenner, and then Alan Brown: 921029 930116 930216 930416 940816 941126 1.61: 2 1 2 1 0 0 1.63: 9 8 9 5 0 0 1.64: 81 44 57 46 18 14 1.65: 266 266 280 286 240 274 1.

Waffle rmail wants to see a From_ line as the <first> line in a mail message. The From_ line is structured when you finally receive the mail item. Only the "From user" portion is required. rmail constructs the remainder if it's not present. rmail uses this line as a marker, placing its own Received: header after it. If the From_ line is not first, rmail constructs a default set of headers, and appends all the supplied text as the message body.

There is one package, Amanda, written by David Douthitt to process Fidonet news packets for MSDOS Waffle v1.65. Amanda is on (old) SimTel. lt;http://www.mailbag.com/users/ssrat/> <http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Park/2884/> [old] There is another package, Erin, written also by David Douthitt, which will handle Fidonet mail packets for MSDOS Waffle v1.65. However, this package is not yet released.

When in doubt poke around the Waffle directory on (old) SimTel or a mirror site for the list of stuff that's purely Waffle related. Also, keep your eyes open in the Waffle newsgroup for information related to utilities that might not have been uploaded to (old) Simtel. ftp ftp.halcyon.com, on the Internet, has a huge anonymous ftp section, in /pub/waffle, which was (but is no longer) mirrored by remote.halcyon.com for anonymous UUCP. There is an anonymous UUCP list posted frequently to c.b.

The different names are only for the user's personal signature. If you have a system default signature, /waffle/system/sig, it is applied to all messages.

waffle/docs/index.doc has the table of contents of each of the other documents. Use a text editor or something similar to look for keywords in index.doc, then it will point you to which file to look in. If you have a version of the UNIX utility 'grep', it's best to do something like 'grep keyword /waffle/docs/*', to find even obscure references to things.

BestBuyByFar carries both WAFFLE and TERRY Weaves in facial skin care Cloths. The properties and benefits are almost identical in the two weaves except the Waffle Weave is just a little more intense in the microdermabrasion and exfoliation process and a little more costly to produce. For regular skin care (cleaning, exfoliation, preventing and clearing blemishes and blackhead, etc.) the Terry Weave will do fine. For more serious skin problems (acne, scars, wrinkles, dark spots, age spots, etc.

You need to manually edit /waffle/menus/editors to reflect the editors that are available on your system. Make sure to include a separate entry so that the user can select 'none' to get back to the internal editor.

You have locked your FOSSIL, without telling Waffle about it. This is a no-no. Put 'locked: xxxx' in your static file, and Waffle will shut up about 'unsupported'. It actually doesn't matter what speed you use in the locked: parameter, if you have locked using the FOSSIL. For Waffle to not complain about this, echo must be in a consistent state - either always on, or always off. If you want it to be always off, put E0 in your default profile.

Waffle has a problem with Xmodem uploads into the internal editor. Xmodem pads the incoming file with ^Z (or 0x00, if the original file ended with a ^Z) to the next 128-byte boundary. This gives Waffle indigestion, and tends to make it lock up when a user uploads a message and tries to immediately save it. A workaround is available. XSTRIP wraps around your Xmodem receive protocol driver. It spawns the driver to receive the file, and then strips the Xmodem padding off the end.

The idea behind the Waffle? project is that existing flood control measures be augmented through the temporary storage of springtime runoff in existing depressions within the basin until major flood crests pass. These existing depressions include low-relief fields bounded by raised roads, ditches, and wetlands.

The Energy & Environmental Research Center (EERC) is just beginning the second year of a multiyear U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)-sponsored program that will examine the feasibility of the Waffle? concept and develop a series of models and databases that could be used by Red River Basin decision makers to implement the program and other water management strategies in the future.

Mix the batter just long enough to moisten all the dry ingredients. Some batters will have lumps. Overmixing the batter will cause the pancakes or waffles to lose volume and become gummy and chewy.

Ideally, it is best to mix the batter and use it. Prepared batter can be covered and stored in the refrigerator for up to 12 hours. Batters that sit too long can produce pancakes and waffles that are tough with low volume.

Yes, it is. You can downdoad files for free. If you choose option high speed, there will be a low fee.

Waffle House restaurants franchises are available only to associates presently in the Waffle House system.

Adding approximately 1/4 cup dry ingredients such as nuts, fruit or flavored chips per 2 cups mix is fun and adds variety in flavor and texture. For additional ideas, click on recipe central.

No, the Waffle? is designed to augment and enhance the other strategies already in place and those planned for the future. We all have to work together to successfully manage our natural resources in the Red River Basin. Considerable effort and resources have been applied to other flood control measures in the Red River Basin, including the building of dikes, dry dams, bypass structures, and wetland and riparian restorations.

Through our partnership with Realtree, you can buy Waffle House shirts and hats. Click Here to check out the Waffle House/Realtree selection.

This is one of the biggest differences between the Waffle and more conventional flood control measures; the Waffle? is a useful water management tool in both dry and wet climatic conditions. As we all know, if you don't like the weather in the Red River Basin, wait a minute, and it will change. Our ever-changing weather pattern extends to long-term climatic trends as well.

The Waffle? feasibility study will result in the first comprehensive, detailed database and hydrologic model for the entire Red River Basin. The feasibility study results will include land-use and agricultural economics data, along with drainage information in a user-friendly GIS (geographic information system) format that will be shared with state and local governing bodies and agencies.
