Some Internet-related utilities Dave Elbon University of Kentucky Some Internet Utilities June 1996 (Updated November 1996) We use these to support our Gopher and Web services. They are written in REXX and use modules from our Utility package, RXSOCKET, and REXXWAIT. GETURL is used to get a file from a server somewhere given a Uniform Resource Locator (URL). It uses GETHTTP, GETFTP, and GETGOPHER. SPIDER is the guts of a service machine that gathers files from other places around our system and uses MAKEHTML to build an HTML file and send it to a server. HARVEST is another service machine that uses a REXXWAIT EVENTS file to drive it. At scheduled times it gets files from servers around the Internet and optionally does a little post-processing. It also uses GETHTTP, GETGOPHER, and GETFTP. Also included are Fetch, a full-screen FTP client (still a little rough, but mostly functional), and Web, a front-end to Charlotte that reduces typing by filling in things like http://. We are currently running under VM/ESA 2.2 and CMS 8. There is, as always, no warranty.
