#! xPERL_PATHx # -*-Perl-*- # # From: clyne@niwot.scd.ucar.EDU (John Clyne) # Date: Fri, 28 Feb 92 09:54:21 MST # # BTW, i wrote a perl script that is similar to 'nfpipe' except that in # addition to logging to a file it provides a command line option for mailing # change notices to a group of users. Obviously you probably wouldn't want # to mail every change. But there may be certain directories that are commonly # accessed by a group of users who would benefit from an email notice. # Especially if they regularly beat on the same directory. Anyway if you # think anyone would be interested here it is. # # File: mfpipe # # Author: John Clyne # National Center for Atmospheric Research # PO 3000, Boulder, Colorado # # Date: Wed Feb 26 18:34:53 MST 1992 # # Description: Tee standard input to mail a list of users and to # a file.
