- Unfortunately, you can't FTP to a LISTSERV: it's a mail server (written
- by Eric Thomas). You send e-mail to LISTSERV@UBVM.CC.BUFFALO.EDU
- saying in its body: GET RUSTEX-L FILELIST. A few hours later you get
- a filelist (generally scrambled, but readable) Then you send a command
- like GET CYRGOTHIC PACKAGE (or something very similar, the exact name is
- in the filelist which I don't have handy). It gets e-mailed to you,
- uuencoded. I recall I've put one BIH2HEX'd copy (for Mac) and ARCed.
