=============================================================================
Using LISTSERV:
To find out what files or logbooks (monthly records of list conversation)
exist on a list's fileserver, send the following command interactively or as
an email message:
    INDEX listname  (where listname is the name of the list)
This command must be sent to LISTSERV@node - here node indicates the address
of the list.  If you wanted to find out what files are on the CONTENTS
fileserver, you would send the following command to LISTSERV@UOTTAWA or
LISTSERV@Acadvm1.Uottawa.CA
    INDEX CONTENTS
To retrieve a file from a LISTSERV fileserver, identify the name of the file
or logbook from the list's filelist (which the above command would have sent
to you) and then send the following command (remember that a LISTSERV file
will always have two names, neither of which can be more than eight characters
long):
    GET file name (where file name is the two-part name of the file you want)
This command must also be sent to LISTSERV@node - where node is the address
of the list.  So to retrieve the file METHOD BIBLIO from the list CONTENTS
you would send the command GET METHOD BIBLIO as a mail message to
LISTSERV@Uottawa (or @Acadvm1.Uottawa.CA).
 
If you require assistance in retrieving list files or logbooks please contact
your local computing services or retrieve the following help file
LISTSERV MEMO from LISTSERV@bitnic and BITNET USERHELP from LISTSERV@marist.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Using LDBASE:
Many LISTSERV systems allow for the selective search and retrieval of list
archives via the LISTSERV database subsystem known as LDBASE.  The following
is a brief example of how to use LDBASE at the LISTSERV which hosts CONTENTS.
In this example, a user is interested in searching for the term 'politics' in
the archives of CONTENTS which are stored on the LISTSERV.  The following
batch job is sent to the LISTSERV (do not send it to the list's address).
In this case, the message is sent to LISTSERV@UOTTAWA (note that e-mail
messages in this example are contained within a box; do not type the
characters representing the box):
+================================+
|  //      JOB  Echo=No          |         First batch job
|  Database Search DD=Rules      |         sent to LISTSERV
|  //Rules DD   *                |         searching for
|  Search politics in CONTENTS   |         the term 'politics'
|  Index                         |
|  /*                            |
+================================+
The user then receives a "DATABASE OUPUT" file from the LISTSERV containing
the results of the search:
+===============================================================+

The user is interested in examining items 37, 39, and 90 (items are numbered
at the left).  A second batch job to LISTSERV@UOTTAWA is sent requesting the
specific items:
+================================+
|  //      JOB  Echo=No          |
|  Database Search DD=Rules      |         Second batch job

|  /*                            |
+================================+
The user then receives a file from the LISTSERV which contains the full text
of the items requested.
 
The preceding is a rudimentary example of how to use LDBASE.  More complicated
searches are possible.  In addition, some e-mail systems allow for an
interactive use of LDBASE that avoids the need for the batch job approach
sketched in the above example.  If you would like complete documentation on
LDBASE, send e-mail to any LISTSERV (e.g., LISTSERV@UOTTAWA) that contains the
one-line message:
    INFO DATABASE
You will receive a large file (about 96kb) which will provide a comprehensive
explanation of LDBASE.  Another, more concise, document is also available
which provides a tutorial on how to search and retrieve information through
LDBASE.  It is authored by Charles W. Bailey, Jr. and is available at
HYDRA.UWO.CA via anonymous FTP.  The document is PACSL_DBMS.TXT and is
located in the LIBSOFT subdirectory.
