Unless indicated +otherwise, login in as user "anonymous", with password: "your e-mail +address" and set "binary" mode (to transfer all eight bits in each +byte). + +* FTPing GNU Software + +** How to FTP GNU Emacs + +If you are on the Internet (see also "** Alternative Internet FTP +Sources" below), you can at present copy the latest distribution +version of GNU Emacs from the file /pub/gnu/emacs-M.N.tar on host +prep.ai.mit.edu (or the file /pub/gnu/emacs-M.N.tar.gz which has been +run through gzip after tar). M and N stand for version numbers; look +at a listing of the directory through ftp to see what version is +available. These files are about 11 and 4 megabytes long, +respectively. After you unpack the distribution, be sure to look at +the files README and INSTALL. + +Because of difficulties in transferring large files, sometimes a split +version of the tar file is created. This would be in a directory +named /pub/gnu/emacs-M.N.tar-split or perhaps +/pub/gnu/emacs-M.N.tar.gz-split, containing files of 100000 characters +each. There is generally no trouble in ftping files of this size. +They can be combined with cat to make a tar file or compressed tar +file. If you can't find such files on prep.ai.mit.edu, have a look at +archive.cis.ohio-state.edu. + +ALWAYS USE BINARY/IMAGE MODE TO TRANSFER THESE FILES! +Text mode does not work for tar files or compressed files. - How to get GNU Software by Internet FTP or by UUCP: +Some ftp'ers have found it necessary for successful file transfer: + - to explicitly use prep.ai.mit.edu internet address: +18.159.0.42 (as of 18 June 95) + +Files of differences from previous widely distributed GNU Emacs +versions to the present version are also available on prep.ai.mit.edu +under names of the form emacs.diff-OO.OO-NN.NN in directory /pub/gnu. +These are made with diff -rc2. Sometimes there are versions +compressed with gzip of these difference files as well; their names +have .gz appended. + +The Emacs manual in source form is included in the distribution.

Some programs have misc +support files as well. Have a look on prep to see which ones. +Compressed versions of the tar or diff files are often available +(indicated by a .gz suffix and made with the `gzip' program). Some of +this software is in beta test (probably still buggy), and is being +made available for use by hackers who like to test software. + +The file /pub/gnu/DESCRIPTIONS has a list of the packages distributed +on prep.ai.mit.edu with a brief description explaining what +each one can be used for. + +More information about these programs can typically be found in the +GNU Bulletin.
