{\em Copyright \copyright 1993 by John December (decemj@rpi.edu). Permission to use for non-commercial, personal or 
educational purposes. This copyright and permission notice must appear in all copies.   Permission is also 
granted to mention, cite, refer to, or describe this document in books, products, or online services 
(but not to reproduce in whole or in part without permission.)}  

\item {\em DISCLAIMER:  Provided ``as is'' without expressed or implied warranty. 
I make no representations about this document's suitability, accuracy, or stability.}

\item {\bf PURPOSE:} to list tools available on the Internet that are used for 
network information retrieval (NIR), Computer-Mediated Communication (CMC), or other services. 
This is not meant to be a strict categorization or an exhaustive list, 
rather a reference catalog. I certainly would welcome comments and suggestions. 

\item {\bf AUDIENCE:}
those getting started in understanding what you can do on the Internet in NIR and CMC; for 
those experienced, it collects and summarizes sources of information.

\item {\bf ASSUMPTION:}
you have access to and know how to use finger, ftp, gopher, 
http, telnet, email, or Usenet newsgroups.

\item {\bf REFERENCES:}
The references listed at the end of this document are very useful guides to these tools.

\item {\bf ACTION:}
The Action: field of the entries is described in the section at the end of this document, ACTION NOTATION. 
This is a notation that I've devised to try to characterize the tools further; I'm not quite satisfied with
this notation, though, yet. 

\item {\bf NOTES:}
\begin{enumerate}
\item Respect your access privileges to these tools. 
\item This information changes; additions/comments welcome.  
\item For demo purposes, I have used Unix commands; certainly Unix is not the only 
operating system required for these tools and forums. Apologies to those
who don't have Unix. 
\item On the classification (NIR v. CMC): some tools could be used for either, such as telnet and email. 
I've placed them in what I feel are "principle use" categories, e.g., telnet is used mostly for NIR,
and email is commonly used for CMC (although both have applications in the other category).
\item Many of these tools have applicability off the Internet. Usenet,
for example, is not confined to the Internet, and Internet email 
(and thus LISTSERV files) can be exchanged with communication systems 
off the Internet (BITNET, fidonet, commercial services.)  So this 
list is not Internet (only) tools, but tools that can be used 
on the Internet.

\section{HOW TO USE THIS DOCUMENT}
This document is formatted for \LaTeX (for conversion to Postscript.)
See the readme file for information on different formats for this document.
   
The tables in this document present information about the Internet. 
Tables of network-accessible information are in the following form:  
  
\noindent 
\begin{tabular}{|p{1.75in}|p{0.35in}|p{1.75in}|p{2.15in}|}\hline 
\multicolumn{4}{|c|}{NETWORK ACCESSIBLE INFORMATION}\\ 
\hline 
\hline 
ITEM\_NAME   & AM &  PARAMETERS & PARAMETERS \\ \hline 
\end{tabular} 
 
\noindent 
Where 
\begin{itemize} 
\item ITEM\_NAME = a short name describing the information or service. 
\item AM (ACCESS METHOD) = one of {email, finger, ftp, gopher, http, phone, telnet, unix, Usenet news}. 
\item PARAMETERS = further access information depending on ACCESS\_METHOD: 
 
\noindent 
\begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|}\hline 
\multicolumn{3}{|c|}{ACCESS\_METHOD AND PARAMETERS}\\ 
\hline 
\hline 
ACCESS\_METHOD  & PARAMETERS  & PARAMETERS  \\ \hline 
\hline 
     email      &   address    & ``letter-body" \\ \hline 
     finger     &   address    & port \# \\ \hline 
     ftp        &   host       & path-to-directory/file-name  \\ \hline 
     gopher     &   host       &  \\ \hline 
     http       &   host       & path-to-directory/file-name  \\ \hline 
     phone      &   phone \#    & \\ \hline 
     telnet     &   host       & port \#  `login-name' \\ \hline 
     unix       &   command        &  \\ \hline 
     news       &   newsgroup-name &  \\ \hline 
\end{tabular} 
\vspace{0.20 cm} 
  
If any of the parameters are not on the line, they are not needed. 
\item All ftp access uses login-name `anonymous' unless stated otherwise.

\begin{verbatim}
NOTATION: In order to summarize the action of these network tools, 
I've developed a notation to express the essential information/ 
communication action of each of the tools. 
                      
NOUNS                 
A Application/software 
C Client              
F File(s)             
H Host/computer       
I Interface           
G Graphical User Interface 
L List                
M Message(s)          
R Receiver            
S Server              
U User/sender         
                      
VERBS                 
:= has read access only 
== has read and write access 
:: interacts with user interface (synchronous) 
(()) sound in interface 
* video interface     
<- copys (over network) from 
<-> copys (over network) to and from 
<+ linked from        
<= created by         
[] contains           
() consists of        
                      
CONJUNCTIONS          
; and                 
                      
NOUN PHRASES          
S[F] Server containing file(s) 
M(L) Message consisting of a List 
S[U] Server containing users(s) = other users using this server 
H[U] Host containing users(s) = other users logged into this host 
                      
NOTATION EXAMPLES:    
File Transfer Protocol: U == F <- H[F] 
Narration: The user gets read/write access to a copy of a 
file that was copied over the network from a 
host containing that file. 
                      
Electronic mail: R == M <- H[M <= U] 
Narration: The Receiver gets read/write access to a copy of 
the Message that was copied over the network from 
an (originating) Host on which resides the original 
Message created by the User (Sender).
