For us poor BITNET folks without FTP (like me), could some kind soul who retrieves the F83 standard text file offered by Adrian Ho please (pretty please) make it available via MAIL somehow. I would prefer ARC'ed and UUENCODE because of local character set problems (a CDC machine) but am somewhat flexible. Is it possible to make it available as a file under this list at the LISTSERV ?? Also, please excuse my inadvertent, erroneous forwarding of another copy of his message to the list. Fingers failed me. Jeff Sicherman

Fingers failed me. > > Jeff Sicherman I am negotiating for some extra disk space for FIGI-L for storing copies of the Digests (collections of FIGI-L traffic) as well as program source. The Forth-83 Standard document is a good candidate. I already have a plain text-file version, but would appreciate any text-formatter input source. If the file is longer than 1000 lines (which is almost certain for the Forth-83 document) LISTSERV refuses to forward it to the list. It is more appropriate to store the thing here and have those people that are interested request it specifically. I will press forward for the disk space, but at least a three week delay is certain because my govt. supervisor (who is graciously paying for this list) will be in Moscow for the next two weeks. -- Lee Brotzman (FIG-L Moderator)
