PCWAIS (ver unknown) Abandoned Freeware PCWAIS is a Wide Area Information System Client, that searches indexed databases on an Internet WAIS Server. It uses WATTCP (be sure to configure the WATTCP.CFG file with your IP info). WAIS returns a ranked list of pages or files that you can retrieve from the server. Another plus to WAIS searching is that it enables you to use so-called natural language input; in other words, you can ask simply "Why is the sky blue?" instead of having to master Boolean AND/OR constructs. NOTE: The file "director.src" is obsolete and no longer valid. Replace this file with a valid WAIS server "src" file.
