horray!  another chance to plug the archive I'm putting together for
Macintosh programs, files, fonts.. you name it.. we probably got it (and
a lot of it you won't find anywhere else..)
  
I've added in about >50< new Type I fonts (the majority being shareware..
and are fully ATM 1.2 - 2.0 compatable -- which answers KKreuger's 
question up there..) in the last four or five weeks.. so it'd be worth
your while to check it out, when you have the chance...
  
To hook up to the archive, FTP anonymously to um-mts.cc.umich.edu (35.1.1.43)
or ub-mts.cc.umich.edu (35.1.1.47).. type in "cd pc2:" to switch to the
macintosh archives, then either "get do/download2 downloadinfo.txt" for
downloading information and/or "get !index index.txt" which transfers the 
entire index to your account to browse through.  
  
One thing I need to make clear is the fact you'll need to enter in a 
second name after the first file name in your GET command.. the reason
being is that you probably don't have a "do/" or "fo/" (font) directory
on your Unix account and when you type in, say "get fo/brody3" by
itself.. your ftp is looking for an fo/ directory to place the font file
into.. "get fo/brody3 brody3.sit.hqx" instead WILL work and you transfer
one of the many --oh...-- couple hundred fonts available on line to
your account to unbinhex and unstuff.  Please send me mail if you
have any questions or comments.. I'm eager to help... thanks, all..
M.
