roh@handel.CS.ColoState.Edu (lucas joon roh) (02/05/91)

Could anyone tell me where I can ftp some os2 shareware/freeware stuff and/or
comp.os2.binaries archive sites?

Thanks in advance for your help.

You can get some os2 shareware/freeware from mtsg.ubc.ca .  cd to "os2". 
This is NOT a comp.os2.binaries archive site, though it has some of the 
comp.binaries.os2 files.

You can get a file list from a listserver for OS/2 programs at the
following address:

LISTSERV%BLEKUL11.BITNET@CUNYVM.CUNY.EDU

You have to send a note with

SEND OS-2 FILELIST

on line 1.  You will get an LPUNCH format file.  When you pick out what
you want, you send a file request to the same network address with:

GET SCRNBLNK ZIPXXE

(for example). This particular request will get you a screen blanker in
zipped xxencoded format.

You can also, if you do not already, get an XXDECODE form the same
listserver and also a PKUNZIP system.  Perform those functions in that
order.
