- How to upload to atari.archive.umich.edu:
- 
- There are two main ways to upload to the archive: FTP or mail

- 1: FTP - This is the preferred method, as it doesn't clog my mailbox with
-   megs and megs of stuff, not to mention it's a bit easier for you too.
-    Logon to the archive as usual, then issue the following commands
-   
-   cd ~atari/new
-   type binary
-   put filename.ext
-   mail weiner@atari.archive.umich.edu .... 

Thanks for posting this, Jeff.

For those that may not know, may I add that, for aesthetic effects, 
if you enter "hash," before you "put filename.ext" or "get
filename.ext," the ftp program will display a # for every 1024 bytes
sent or received.  Actually, when you 'put' a file, it will display
bunch of # at once.  Moreover, if you enter "bell," it will sound your
system bell when a function has completed.  Finally, you can send and
receive a list of files using the "mput" and "mget" commands,
respectively, with a list of the files after the command.
