Just a reminder (a saw a few queries recently):

iear.arts.rpi.edu [128.113.6.10] has an anonymous ftp server that
contains (mostly) graphics software, lots of raytracers, etc.
Please feel free to ftp anonymously.  Since I just put a new
ftp daemon there might be some problems, but I doubt it.

Here is a list of contents of the archive (found in pub/CONTENTS):
