Hi, Does anyone know if the more recent Fred Fish disks (188 - 200) are available through anonymous FTP? Thanks. Bob Davis. -- Andrew Weaver | weaver@tut.cis.ohio-state.edu OSU College of Business | ...ihnp4!cbosgd!osu-cis!tut!weaver

I need some things from Fred Fish disks 320+. funet.fi has up to 320 or 319. Are there any other ftp sites that have fish disks, hopefully the most recent ones too? If you know of any, please let me know. I'll probably need the node number as well as the system name. In particular, I'm looking for the XPR Kermit library with source. Any help is appreciated Mark Wolfskehl wolfskeh@acf9.nyu.edu

In general, this is where the other Fish Disk FTP sites get their collections. I've never known any other site to have a release of the disks online before us. If they did, I wish I had known about it because it would save me the job of uploading the disks myself!

Hi, does anyone know where I can get the Fred Fish collection? I have gone through a whole bunch of ftp sites without any luck. Thanks, -- - Anshu Aggarwal (anshu@buengc.bu.edu) "Morality is the herd-instinct in the individual." - Friedrich Nietzsche

Everyone has been asking (seems like whining) where they can get the latest Fish disks for the Amiga. As soon as Mr. Fish posts another 10 disks that are available, the next day c.s.a has a few posts wondering what FTP site has the disks, or why certain ones don't have anything beyond 3xx yet. Ever heard of supporting the author? It's the shareware principle. Now, Mr. Fish's policy is not to charge an excessive amount for the duplication of his disks. However, he does make a small amount for all the time and effort that he puts into compiling, testing, and distributing the disks (one would assume). In fact he should be charging $10 for each disk if he wanted to get back the money for the time/effort/computer hardware he puts into the disks. So if you are so in need of these new disks, send him a little money, and you'll have the disks, long before any FTP net site has em. FTP is NOT free, someone pays for it somehwhere (if you do not directly), so free up the net, and order the disks youself, or contribute to your local user's group fund and get copies there (or contribute as well) --
