Perfect! Thanks so much :-) The first two are now also on archive, the InfoServer CD will follow soon:
Excellent.
I plan on updating the description for the CONOLD CDs with a list of the books included. That probably means writing a script to extract that information from the DECW$BOOKSHELF files.
I did look at the CONOLD and there didn't seem to be anything that would help (other than the bookshelf files).
There was the VTBOOK software on a DECUS release many years ago. It got stomped on for a while and then DEC gave up the fight against PDF and (I think) VTBOOK made it to the Freeware CD. That might help in working out the format.
Wow, thanks a lot! You are putting in some serious effort here! I'm glad this worked so well :-)
I rather suspect that if I'd stopped the initial ddrescue when it was at 99% and just gone straight to the 1500 grit sandpaper, then I could have saved my DVD-RW a few days of work.
I've just catalogued the VAX CONDIST/CONOLD sets I have and it comes in at 14 or so. I'm hoping that someone tells me that they're already archived before I start on those :-)
