{C} Hi there. As you might gather, I could not extract this. nethack.exe appears

no but ...

{C} If there is a good version out there, where can I pick it up. We can ftp
{C} anywhere but of course in Australia is far, far preferable!

Don't know of any in Australia, but if you want to try from the us
you can ftp from linc.cis.upenn.edu [130.91.6.8] from the /pub/NH3.0/PC
directory.

Mind you, all of this is spelled out in the beginning of the first
posting.

An then in  <71133@yarra.pyramid.com.au> he adds:

{C} More specifically, I am missing parts 7 and 8 of the first disk and parts
{C} 1-4 of the second. My newsreader (nn) managed to construct a single zoo 
{C} archive out of all the rest and this behaviour was so devious that I have
{C} only just spotted it, and changed to trn!

Not that I really have any trouble getting this binary (;-), but
I though that I might add that my site suffers the same plight.

I still use nn though :-).

Perhaps the net burped on the middle posting, and many users are missing
these parts?
