Willy Langeveld's VLT 4.846 is now available in the /incoming/amiga
directory on abcfd20.larc.nasa.gov (or "newzanth" as some have chosen to
call it) via anonymous ftp. These files were obtained directly from BIX.

The following is part of the "Readme" file:
VLT 4.846
=========
This is mainly a bug-fix update, but there are one or two new
features. This version no longer comes with the old documentation files
that previous versions came with. This is because there is a new manual
available, see the notice in the docs directory. The only documentation
files are about things not covered in the manual.
The contents of the "docs/VLT.Manual" file:
The VLT manual
==============
The VLT manual is an official publication by the Stanford Linear
Accelerator Center. You can obtain it, free of charge, by writing to
the following address:

Ask for the following SLAC report:
"A Valiant Little Terminal - A VLT User's Manual"
SLAC Report 370
by Amanda Weinstein
The manual is very complete, it is 114 pages in single-spaced fairly small
type. Amanda did one heck of a job on it, as I'm sure you'll find out when
you get it. You do not have to live in the US to be eligible to receive the
manual.
It was written for version 4.824. New features are described in the
VLT documentation file in this directory, but this document assumes
you have the manual.
There is also short doc file for the PingServer (the Ping program).
Willy.
Note: If you don't have access to anonymous ftp, I'll email uuencoded
versions of the Lharc archives mentioned above. Please send requests to
mjw@alux2.att.com and specify which version you'd like to receive (VLT
or VLTjr).
