[comp.binaries.ibm.pc.d] Drawing package update from Vaasa, Finland

ts@chyde.uwasa.fi (Timo Salmi LASK) (08/13/89)

Wed 9-Aug-89: Released update tsdraw12.arc.  Tsdraw is a system for
drawing in two dimensions.  It is intended in particular for
delineating linear programming programs of two variables, and
simultaneous equations, but it can be used for other drawing
purposes as well.  The current update includes among other things
the following new features.  Choice of palette.  Directory command. 
Escape to MsDos shell.  Drawing filename extension defaults to drw. 
Stop command for testing drawings loaded from files. 

Sat 12-Aug-89: I have (again) released an upgrade of the graphics
drawing package: tsdraw13.arc. Among the new features are recordmode
for recording user's input to a logfile, fill pattern and color
options, option to suppress warning beeps, optional long form of
commands, new pixel grid command, and (hopefully) fixed the bug in
drawing scaled lines.

The package is available by anonymous ftp as usual.

MY QUESTION:  How does one ftp a file from finland from a US INTERNET site?
I tried "ftp -i chyde.uwasa.fi" but they're not even in my /etc/hosts file.
Perhaps there is an INTERNET nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn address for this site?  Also,
as a matter of curiosity, what physical medium would such a connection have
to traverse to connect these two sites?

Thanks, AJ
