One question: Assuming I know how to BITFTP and from which sites I can
get data, how do I get info on where on the FTP machine the files are?
And how do I know which files are there? When you run ftp interactivly
it's not so bothersome to ls /pub, see what's there and search on. To
do the same with BITFTP requires several mail's (and days).

Are there any standard commands to get info on ftp-able files or any
other information? Is there any standard directory structure? Is it
cold where You live?

Thanks in advance,
