[comp.lang.c++] Where to FTP NIH Class?

aaron@rruxh.UUCP (Akman) (05/25/90)

I'm sure this has been asked-to-death, but where can I FTP these
infamous NIH classes from?  Are they free?  Is there a C++
implementation?  Is that the only implementation?  Does everyone
agree that they are great, generic, respectably fast/small, useful
for real work?  Or is there more to the story than just:  download
'em, compil 'em, and become orders of magnitude more productive?

I've also been looking but haven't seen an FTP site posted for the NIH
classes for quite some time.  Is there one?

As a comment to those (like myself) without FTP, I notice that 
Autin Code Works (512) 258-0785 now sells V 2.204 of the NIH
Class Library for $35.  (As well as the Rouge Wave Vector & Matrix
Classes for $125 and the "Using C++" (Eckel) diskette for $25)
