I'm happy to announce the availability of a new tool on Miami's
DEC OpenVMS system (MiaVX1):  WWWSetUp.
 
     MCIS Technical Support (in the person of Kent Covert) has developed
a tool which helps members of the Miami University community easily create
their own Home Page on the World Wide Web (WWW).  WWWSetUp automatically
(a) creates a WWW subdirectory in your MiaVX1 account, (b) sets the
necessary file protections for your WWW subdirectory and your account
directory to allow WWW access, and (c) creates a sample HyperText Markup
Language (HTML) file which constitutes your personal WWW Home Page.  This
file, named INDEX.HTML, can be easily edited on MiaVX1 by simply typing
                    EDIT [.WWW]INDEX.HTML
at the MiaVX1 command line prompt (usually $).  Your personal WWW Home
Page can then be accessed using this Uniform Resource Locator (URL):
              http://MiaVX1.MUOhio.Edu/~userid/
(where ~userid is a tilde followed by your MiaVX1 account userid).
For example, http://MiaVX1.MUOhio.Edu/~HarlanJB/
 
     To use this tool, simply type
                            WWWSETUP
at the MiaVX1 command line prompt (usually $).  If you have questions or
need assistance, please contact the MCIS Help Desk (by e-mail at
[log in to unmask] or by phone at 529-7900) and request that your call
be routed to CWIS.
 
     Many thanks to MCIS Technical Support (specifically, Kent) for
developing this extremely convenient tool for the Miami community.
