README for zipcode program... This program has 4 main parts: 1) zipcode.txt -- An ascii file of known zipcodes. I you don't like my program you can write your own using this file. The file is shipped in 8 segments. The last segment is a special "annex" of zipcodes in use by army units in operation DESERT-STORM. 2) lzipcode -- when you make this program, you can search the ascii for zipcodes (given the city name) or the city name (given the zipcode). This program calls "egrep" to do the actual search. 3) rpc.zipcoded -- an rpc server to be installed on the same host that the zipcode.txt file resides. You need to start the server by putting "/usr/etc/rpc.zipcoded &" in your /etc/rc.local file and "zipcoded 536871048" in your /etc/rpc file (The assignment of 536871048 was arbitrary. If you use a different number, change the appropriate numbers in the code). 4) zipcode -- an rpc client program which calls rpc.zipcoded. This is my first use of RPC, so contact the author if you have any "improvements". Maj Brian Boyter US Army Foreign Science and Technology Center Charlottesville, Va boyter@fstc-chville.army.mil
