Now *this* would be good news - the Aston TeX server reachable
from the Internet? With just ordinary ftp instead of their
``Colourbook'' version? (Never figured that one out.) The fact
that your machine doesn't seem to ``know'' the site, means
nothing; the adress in numeric form could work a lot better.
Aston'ers: any comments? They would be *gratefully* received,
I'm certain.
