	Amiga TeX is a commercial product -- no FTP!

	However, there is a new PD Amiga TeX called Amiga CommonTeX (I
think).  It was made in Germany.  You can get a copy of it by sending e-mail
to LISTSERV@MAMMUTTI.UTU.FI.  Your letter should contain exactly this
line:

/AMYGET SRC AMIGABI TEX-DIST (PARTSEND

You will then be mailed all 17 parts of the CommonTeX distribution disk.
Join them to get a uuencoded ZOO file.

	NOTE!  This is not the complete CommonTeX.  It is just one disk
of many.  It contains virtex and some shell scripts, plus plain.fmt, 
plain.tex, and some essential files.  No fonts, no other macro files.
There is information in TEX-DIST about how to get the rest.

                                                        Dan
