AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!

[Sorry about the outburst.]

I haven't done this because none of my sources have done it.  Jim Crotinger
and Maurice LeBrun are responsible for all the VLT stuff I've got.  Neither
has (apparently) offered it to comp.binaries.amiga.  Both apparently have
access to the net.  Is SOMETHING WRONG with making VLT public?  My impression
is that it is freely redistributable, but copywrited.  Someone let me know to
the contrary and I'll slam the door on this.  On the other hand, if no one
else can figure out, from the material I am now exposing to the PUBLIC, why
the VLT stuff shouldn't be sent to comp.binaries.amiga, then I suggest they
do it, or strongly suggest that I do it.

By virtue of enormous public pressure, I hereby make available by anonymous
ftp from gtss.gatech.edu (aka 128.61.4.1) a bunch of VLT related stuff.  When
you get in change directory to pub.  There there is a vlt directory,
containing vlt stuff (release 3.656).  There there is also a rexxarplib2.1
directory, containing version 2.1 of rexxarplib.  There there is also an
ifflib15.3 directory, containing version 15.3 of an iff library which
rexxarplib2.1 will use if the occasion arises (I haven't tried either
rexxaprlib2.1 or ifflib15.3).

I set all this up today, including anonymous ftp access to this system.
Let me know by mail if it doesn't work.  Also let me know if it shouldn't.
