I've put the news-tape directory (that was on the Sun Users Group SEx machine) in tumtum's anonymous ftp directory. (There was some junk in /usr/crash, so I was able to find enough disk space!) It's split up into 8 half meg files, "news-tape.tar.Z.a[a-h]". Total uncompressed size: 10114 kilos. This is an early release -- there's a bunch of unorganized stuff, and I still don't have the most recent versions of everything with appropriate copyright notices in place. Please tell me about things that don't work, and send improvements and stuff you'd like to include! Instructions: ftp to tumtum.cs.umd.edu (128.8.128.49), and log in as user anonymous, password anything. Set binary mode!! Change to the NeWS directory. The file news-tape.sum has checksums for everything (except itsself), and news-tape.list.Z is a list of all the files. Get the files "news-tape.tar.Z.a[a-h]", cat them together, uncompress them, and untar them. Stay up all night and play! -Don
