I moved to a new computer recently and seemed to have lost my list of FTP sites which contain OS/2 programs. Please email me if you know of any (the only one I recall is uwasa.fi). By the way, since I'm on the subject - would anyone like to set up/join an informal email list through which we could trade OS/2 programs? Like comp.binaries.os2 but with more volume. I know there's a lot of software out there, it's just on bulletin boards in California... Thanks for your support. -- | Todd Crowe | | n8840371@unicorn.wwu.edu or TODDC@nessie.wwu.edu |

About two weeks ago I requested a list of sites from which to FTP OS/2 programs. Following is a summary of the information I received: --- Kent Williams - williams@umaxc.weeg.uiowa.edu williams@herky.cs.uiowa.edu |colin@novell.com sez: |> Kent, I'll be setting up an ANONYMOUS FTP OS/2 archieve within the |> next three weeks. I'll be posting the address to the net when it's |> ready. In the mean time you can try 128.120.57.1. | |mattes@azu.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de sez: |>TeX (including METAFONT, drivers, and ...) for OS/2 is available |>for anonymous ftp from terminator.cc.umich.edu, directory |>msdos/text-mgmt/TeX/emtex. Other OS/2 stuff is available from the |>same machine in the os2 directory. --- Alan Ballard - ballard@staff.ucs.ubc.ca |There is some stuff available via anon FTP from mtsg.ubc.ca; enter "cd os2:" |then "dir". | |This isn't intended to be a complete archive... I install programs there |that seem likely to be useful to some of our clients here, and leave out |a lot of junk. --- Tom Haapanen - tom@mims-iris.waterloo.edu |mims-iris.waterloo.edu (129.97.129.116) has an archive of comp.binaries.os2. | |Incidentally, I will gladly post more os/2 software -- as long as someone |sends it to me first! --- Bob Goodearl -- goodearl@world.std.com |Please let me know what you find. Also, since there is no discussion |group for comp.binaries.os2, do you know where I'd request info? One of the |parts of a recent posting seems to have come through damaged. --- I also suggested setting up a OS/2 program mailing list. Upon further reflection (and advice from fellow readers), I now understand that comp.os.os2.binaries is the proper forum. -- | Todd Crowe | | n8840371@unicorn.wwu.edu or TODDC@nessie.wwu.edu |
