I just ftp'ed the Stuttgart site for EmTeX. Looks like there are some 
changes  going on.  I cd'ed into /soft/tex/ but could not find the emtex
directory. Latter I found it in /soft/texold (if I remembered
correctly, but that "old" phrase I am certain.) Perhaps an update is 
eminent ?. Is the one at ymir the latest ? Am I right to say that 
the Stuttgart site should have the latest?
