- I [am looking for] EMACS 18.59. [...] the archie servers [don't]

- The "official" master for all GNU software lives on "Prep.AI.MIT.Edu"
- (actually no longer an AI Lab machine, but the "published" name is an
- alias for wherever it _does_ live :-) in the directory pub/gnu. The
- file name you want is emacs-18.59.tar.Z (remember to use binary mode
- to transfer it).

- I thought that most Archie servers had this machine in their list
- (under at least one of its names, it presently distributes for a
- number of interesting things, including Athena software and Kerberos).
- You should probably contact the operators of whatever Archie server
- you were using and mention this to them, the file has been there since
- Halloween and they should have picked it up by now...
