Hi, >> Today if you're an IEEE type, and you wonder where to find RFC 793, or >> you're wondering what RFC 793 is about, and you look it up in IEEE >> Xplore, the online library that all electrical engineers use, and that >> their employers have site subscriptions for, you'll find ... nothing. >> Yes, you can find it in Google, but Google isn't a particularly good >> place to look for engineering papers. Xplore is. RFCs aren't in the >> ACM Digital Library, either, same problem. > Nor is it in Google Scholar, which is generally where I look first. As a KDE user, I use the incredibly short shortcut of typing "Alt+F2" and then rfc:793<Enter> (which redirects to http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc793.txt, not the GED hardcopy reseller :-) ) But maybe "an IEEE type" (whatever that is) doesn't use KDE. Or any kind of search engine that would yield the document in a fraction of a second. Or the internet at all?
