Path: utzoo!utgpu!jarvis.csri.toronto.edu!rutgers!apple!agate!shelby!lindy!news From: LC.YRS@forsythe.stanford.edu (Richard Stanton) Newsgroups: comp.binaries.ibm.pc.d Subject: Help on downloading Message-ID: <3736@lindy.Stanford.EDU> Date: 7 Jul 89 18:18:44 GMT Sender: news@lindy.Stanford.EDU (News Service) Lines: 20 I am a new user of this bboard, and am unsure how to download files that are posted. This is obviously a rather basic question, but if anyone could point me in the direction of some information, I'd be grateful. Specifically: 1) How do I download files from comp.binaries.ibm.pc onto my account P.Stanton@GSB-WHY@stanford.edu? 2) What software do I need on my PC to make these files (either binary or source code) usable, and where can I get it? 3) I see mention of files on a machine called simtel20. How do I get at these (I have never used FTP etc) Thanks to anyone who is kind enough to reply to my e-mail account (as listed above) P.STANTON@GSB-WHY.STANFORD.EDU -------
