I've been checking out ftp.apple.com from time to time. It seems they're
starting to get some files on it. I had two questions:
1) Is there any anticpated date when the site will be "up and running"? (So I
don't have to check to much :->)
2) When I do "ls" on ftp.apple.com I get the listings offset on each line.
This site is the only one to do this. Is there any site-local reason for this?
This can get mucho problematic when the names start wrapping around from one
side of the screen to the other
This is what I mean:
BRIC-A-BRAC.APPLE.COM>ls mpwc
<Opening ASCII mode data connection for file list.
mpwc/bawk.sit.hqx
mpwc/cflow.sit.hqx
mpwc/gnu-sed.sit.hqx
mpwc/indent1.1.sit.hqx
mp
w
c/microemacs.sit.hqx
mpwc/tarsrc.sit.hqx
