Send mail to panarthea. 2. Wait for reply. 3. Repeat as needed to get all the files. 4. Since this account is on a VMS machine, use EDT to edit out the headers, and for multi-part things, edit the include at the end to specify b:, cause I don't have a harddisk. 5. Go home. 6. Log in at home. 7. Save the files by capturing screen output. 8. Put fresh disk w/ only UUD in a:. 9. UUD specifying that the first file is on b:. 10. De-ARC form A: to a new disk on b:. If anyone has a better idea (especially for the transfer from my work account to my ST) please tell it to me. It might just allow me to get some of the ARC'ed files from some of the other sources (I don't seem to be able to transfer them to my ST). I agree that the archive at panarthea is run very well. >Good luck >Brian +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Kitakaze Tatsu Raito Neil Gilmore internet:gilmore@macc.wisc.edu | | Jararvellir, MACC, UW-Madison bitnet: gilmore@wiscmac3 | | Middle Kingdom Madison, Wi | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
