CONCISE: User Guide
The CONCISE information server has a database of information that
can be accessed by electronic mail. The server stores information
about networks, networking tools and projects as well as other matters
that are of pan-European interest.
This document gives an introduction to the CONCISE information server,
and explains a little about how to use it. As you read the examples
in " Commands ", it would be a good idea to try each one of them out.
After reading this you should be able to make basic use of the service.
Along with this introduction, there is a CONCISE reference manual,
which is more detailed and somewhat longer. It is suggested that this
introduction is read first, following which most of the basic commands
can be tried; the reference manual can then be used to get detailed
information about the commands if necessary. [See also: other data
