Subject:Responses RE: use of slash From:Mary Jean Fitzgibbons <MJFITZG -at- WAYNEST1 -dot- BITNET> Date:Thu, 26 May 1994 14:14:30 EDT
Thanks to the 7-10 tech-whirlers ;-) who provided me with quite a
collection of information about the use and various names for the slash (/).
I will combine all the responses into a file and then edit and/or summarize
them for submission to the entire list. But that may take a week or so.
I'm supposed to be on vacation for the next 10 days, but I always have
a hard time cutting the cord to my computer before I can relax at home base.
