A file there can be retrieved which (after compilation at your site) allows the user to enter 'area code xxx', and get back the geographical location of that code and the main cities therein. It needs a little updating to account for recent additions. It was donated to the archives by Carl Moore some time ago. Use regular ftp commands to retrieve it; i.e. 'ftp lcs.mit.edu','cd telecom-archives'. PT]
