A number of people have asked if I could mail them copies of Oaklisp, or even send tapes. I'm very sorry, but the answer is catagorically no; I don't even have the time to answer such mail individually. Perhaps some kind person will post Oaklisp to comp.sources, solving this problem for uucp people. (I am willing to hand carry a tape to a warm clime, like California, if you provide the transportation.) I have also been deluged with mail concerning problems FTPing Oaklisp, so I am posting more extensive instructions. The correct way to FTP Oaklisp is as follows: cd where/you/want/the/stuff ftp doghen.boltz.cs.cmu.edu [or 128.2.222.37 if necessary] user ftpguest [whatever your client likes here] password oaklisp [password is in lowercase] get oak/release.tar.Z release.tar.Z [not a typo] quit uncompress release.tar.Z tar xf release.tar ... NOTE: The ftp server on DOGHEN has a bug and fails if you try to switch directories, so don't use ftp's CD command. --Barak.
