- The files listed below are available via an anonymous FTP from arizona.edu
- and from the Icon BBS.
-
-
- The files are the same for FTP and the BBS, although some are too large
- for practical transfer over telephone lines -- it just makes it simpler
- to have the same files and documentation both places.
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- IMPORTANT: It is important to use binary (image) file transfer for non-text
- files.
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Most of the Icon material here corresponds to Version 7 of the language.
- Where Version 7 material is not available yet, Version 6 material is
- provided. See the notes that follow.
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Files with the suffix .arc are in ``ARC'' format. There are dearchiving
- programs for several systems as noted below.
-
- Files with the suffix .sit are in "stuffit" format for the Macintosh;
- see the notes below.
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- In some cases, "natural" file names have been modified to conform to
- limitations of some operating systems. You may wish to rename them
- at your end.
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Note: in many cases, the files here are images of diskettes. As such,
- they preserve the structure of the physical distribution as referred
- to in their documentation. One consequence of this is that, for example,
- there are ARC files within ARC files.
-
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- If you pick up a copy of Icon from this machine, please let us know
- by mail to icon-project@arizona.edu and include a postal mailing
- address. We will add you to our Icon Newsletter mailing list if you are
- not already on it. On request, we'll send you printed copies of the
- documentation on installing and using Version 7 of Icon.
-
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Note that the compressed files were produced with Version 4.0 of compress.
- The Version 4.0 format is incompatible with earlier versions, notably 3.0, but
- compress.bdl is the source for 4.0. Thus, if your version of compress has
- obvious difficulty with these compressed files, just pick up compress.bdl
- and use it.
-
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- If you are not familiar with the ARC utility, get the executable binary and
- enter
-
- arc h
-
- To unpack all of the files in an archive, use
-
- arc x filename.arc
-
- or
-
- pkxarc filename.arc
