As you know, I've been pushing the macintosh archive on
um-mts.cc.umich.edu and ub-mts.cc.umich.edu for a few months
now.. the major drawback to that system was that it's not a Unix
operating system and it was a pain for people to FTP into..those
archives are still there and still being maintained.. but now..
try FTP'ing anonymously to >mac.archive.umich.edu< and
once you're in.. type in cd /archive/mac.. you'll then
find yourself at the top level of a new, MASSIVE Macintosh
archive.. (the fonts can be found in /system.extensions/fonts)
We have more type one and type three fonts than any other
archive around.. and I'm especially encouraging those of you
with GEnie and Compu$erve access to help us in making this
particular place the next best alternative to sumex-aim.. If
you have anything to submit, there's an "incoming" directory
you can ftp-put things into.. or if that doesn't work..
type in "cd /umich.edu/users/m/d/mdd/IamaDROPfolder!" and
that'll put you into my personal drop folder directory.
I'm not just interested in fonts, ANYTHING macintosh and
public domain/shareware will do.. if you have any questions
or suggestions, send me mail at dauter@mac.archive.umich.edu,
or mike_dautermann@um.cc.umich.edu or userw72n@umichum.bitnet..
I'm not gonna announce this archive on the comp.sys.mac.*
groups for probably another month while I'm putting the last
touches on the archive.. so if you notice things moving around
between sessions, I hope you understand it's just "dust from
construction".. I'm looking forward to hearing any comments
you might have.. thanks!
