Here follows a short list of new programs or updates received since 1-Jul-1990. A small modification to the server software has been made to facilitate downloading of split files: you have to specify part one only, i.e. filename.uaa, and you will automatically receive all parts of a package. Those who have never used the file server before should send a mail message to NETSERV@EMBL.BITNET and include the lines HELP HELP SOFTWARE to get information on how to access the server.
