XView version 2.0 source release

	xview2-announce		announcement of XView sources
	xview2-more		follow up information for announcement
	xview2-ftp		this file
	xview2.tar.Z.a[a-i]	split compressed tar file pieces
	

FTP sites for XView source:

Location	Machine Name		ftp login	ftp directory
---------------------------------------------------------------------
west coast	xview.ucdavis.edu	ftp		pub/XView2.0/*
east coast	expo.lcs.mit.edu	ftp		pub/contrib/xview*

When transfering a tar file via ftp, be sure to set binary mode first.
The split pieces are all less than 512k (524288 bytes) long and must 
be transfered in image mode (use the ftp "binary" and "mget" commands).  
If you are doing an "mget" you'll probably want to restart ftp with 
the "-i" option to prevent it from asking you about every file.

Here are the sizes of those pieces:
        527052  xview2.tar.Z.aa
        624920  xview2.tar.Z.ab
        467928  xview2.tar.Z.ac
        446444  xview2.tar.Z.ad
        475499  xview2.tar.Z.ae
        523285  xview2.tar.Z.af
        533217  xview2.tar.Z.ag
        533981  xview2.tar.Z.ah
          1469  xview2.tar.Z.ai

total size: 4133795 bytes

2324 1042 xview2.tar.Z.ag
35743 1043 xview2.tar.Z.ah
24259 3 xview2.tar.Z.ai

To recreate the compressed tar file, can do the following:

	% cat *.tar.Z.?? | uncompress | (cd /usr/local/src/xview; tar xvf - )

which create a directory called "fcs" in the directory /usr/local/src/xview.  
Can rename this to anything you like.  See the README file in that directory 
on how to begin building the XView source.

Unpacked XView source requires approximately 12.5+ MB of disk space.
