According to the man page for uw, the arc-encoded program and documentation for the ST version of Unix Windows is kept on watmath in /usr/source/public/commands/uw/st/* I had a look using 'jqperuse' and found it, but my question is how do I copy it onto my account so that I can download it to my ST...I don't have a watmath account. Also, I noticed that the date on the man page was 1986, which makes me wonder if this is a recent version of uw. I have tried several times to get uw from fileservers but haven't got any reply...so if someone has a newer version, could they let me know. Suggestions anyone -- James

Try the "rcp" (Remote CoPy) command. From your home machine, give these commands: rcp watmath.jqpublic:/usr/source/public/commands/uw/st/ReadMe . rcp watmath.jqpublic:/usr/source/public/commands/uw/st/uw.arc . Lee Dickey -- L. J.

Here's how you can use ftp to copy source from watmath. Ftp is more convenient that rcp is some cases. You can use the "cd" and "ls" commands to browse. $ ftp watmath Name: anonymous Password: anonymous ftp> binary - required for binary files ftp> cd /usr/source/public/commands/uw/st ftp> ls ReadMe uw.arc ftp> get ReadMe - copies ReadMe to your current directory ftp> get uw.arc ftp> ^D
