If you have ftp access, you might want to take advantage of a one week opportunity to pick up the initial articles from this mailing list, thanks to David Stampe at the University of Hawaii. ( N.B.: the "native.lang" conference is available only at IGC/APC hosts, like PeaceNet/EcoNet/GreenNet/Pegasus/Fredsnaetet, etc.) Newsgroups: native.lang Path: gnosys!BU.EDU!uhccux.uhcc.Hawaii.Edu!stampe From: David Stampe <uhccux.uhcc.Hawaii.Edu!stampe> Subject: nn.lang archive postings temporarily available by anonymous ftp Message-ID: <9106142029.AA04392@uhccux.uhcc.Hawaii.Edu> Date: Fri, 14 Jun 1991 20:29:05 GMT Subscribers with hosts on the Internet can get an archive of back numbers 00-51 of nn.lang by anonymous ftp on uhccux.uhcc.hawaii.edu. The file is in the directory "linguist/" and is called nn-lang.tar.Z . It will be available only for a week or two, after which uhccux is being unplugged. To ftp the archive, give the (shell) command: ftp uhccux.uhcc.hawaii.edu Answer the login prompt with: anonymous and the password prompt with anything, or as a courtesy, your email address: PASSWORD Once logged in, connect to the linguist directory: cd linguist Use the binary setting for the transfer: binary Then ask for the archive file: get nn-lang.tar.Z When the transfer is complete (64863 bytes), log out of uhccux, disconnect, and quit ftp: bye To unpack the archive into a directory, make a directory DIR. On unix: mkdir DIR Connect to the directory. On unix: cd DIR Uncompress (zcat) and unarchive (tar xf) the archive: zcat ../nn-lang.tar.Z | tar xvf - Or in two steps: uncompress ../nn-lang.tar.Z tar xvf nn-lang.tar The result should be a directory DIR/ containing files 00 through 51, totalling 120430 bytes. Plus the archive file ../nn-lang.tar(.Z), which you can delete. Unless you'd like to put it somewhere accessible by anonymous ftp on YOUR host machine, and announce it here.
