Are there any anonymous ftp sites for c-64/128 archives of public domain or shareware programs? Please let me know by e-mail to: Eric Romo, UD069225 at VM1.NODAK.EDU Thanks muchly. Eric.

Ok, would there be a great response if I were to set up an ftp
site strickly for the 64/128 family? Maybe to put frequently
asked for programs (kermit, desterm, *term, whatever) plus maybe
digests of frequently asked questions ("I was thinking about getting
a C compiler, which one is best?") ?
Please let me know what you think as far as actual need, what should go
there, or anything else you care you tell me.

It would be great if you could set up a ftp site just for 64/128. Personally I would like to see the following in the site: 1. a directory like /pub/term where the terminal programs can be found. 2. a dir. like /pub/util where utility programs like LYNX, ARC, LADS, etc can be found. 3. a section where a digest of frequently asked questions on HARDWARE can be found e.g., "Can my BI-80 do...", "What disk drive is good for...", "Where can I get a RS232 interface " 4. a section where a digest of frequently asked questions on SOFTWARE can be found e.g., "How can I make KERMIT do..." "Can I use WTERMITE to...", "What can I do with the xxx menu in GEOS" Just a bunch of un-organised thoughts ! /:-) Patrick Wong pcw@squid.tn.cornell.edu

And I, for one would be one of those people. It would be a great idea to have places were we can share PD softwares from all over the country and world. Some softwares released in the East never shows up on the West (or takes very long). :( Scott.

Try "tolsun.oulu.fi" ... a machine across the seas :-)
My nameserver doesn't recognize it, so you might try "ftp 128.214.5.6"
... seems to be an unusually busy site, so you may have connection problems.

how about sections for:
(5) 128 mode specific stuff, 80-column stuff, etc.
(6) c128 cp/m mode stuff - programs for cp/m 3.0 (plus) that are specific
to the c128.

I saw some programs to use the SID chip and other Commdore specific hardware in CpM mode. acliu@skat.usc.edu (Alejandro Liu) (Simple .signature, $CHEAP$)
