   Could you please give UUCP direction?  Also a list of the directory so

The general instructions for access to osu-cis' archives are posted
periodically to comp.sources.d.  We may be due for a repost (I'll
check), but if your system respects Expires: headers, you should have
a copy around in that newsgroup, I believe.

One of the things which those instructions (~/GNU.how-to-get) tell you
to do is to pick up a copy of ~/ls-lR.Z, which is a file updated
nightly around 3am consisting of the output of "ls -lR" on our entire
archive.  In that list, the directory gnu/emacs/elisp-archive is the
topmost directory in which these archives live.

Be aware that I am compressing the entire archive in the interest of
avoiding unnecessary disc space occupation.  The ~/ls-lR.Z of
Wednesday morning will reflect this.
