TeXhax.86index This file contains an index to the contents of TeXhax since its resumption with Malcolm Brown as moderator, through the end of 1986. TeXhax issues are referred to as YYNN; all 1986 issues (8600-8615) are indexed. Each reference gives the issue, the subject, the originator, and the date. Multi-line references are indicated by - following the issue number. Some additional information may be given as a marginal note. If the item or a reference to it was published in TUGboat, m#n indicates the TUGboat volume and issue number. Some items submitted to TeXhax were too long to be published in full. Such items have been extracted to separate files, which reside at Arpanet node Score.Stanford.Edu. These files are identified by "file: filename". This index file was prepared by Barbara Beeton (BNB@XX.LCS.MIT.Edu and Editor of TUGboat). Many thanks to Malcolm Brown for his diligent work as TeXhax moderator. bb, 17 Jan 87 Administrative notes (Malcolm Brown) 8601 Addresses for mail to TeXhax (29 Oct 86) 8#1 8614 Addresses for mail to TeXhax, reminder (26 Dec 86) 8610 Bitnet failure @WISCVM on issue #9 (2 Dec 86) 8#1 8615 Bitnet WISCVM overload; request for alternate relay (28 Dec 86) 8608 Digest format announcement (24 Nov 86) 7#3 8600 Introduction (23 Sep 86) 8605 Moderated vs. digest format, discussion (8 Nov 86) 8606 Moderated vs. digest format, more discussion (18 Nov 86) 8602 Proposed file naming system at Score (2 Nov 86) General information; comments on TeXhax 8613 DVI file format documenation, query (Mark Scherfling, 9 Dec 86) 8613 DVI file format documenation, reply (B.
