: ** Introduction

: The Internet site, ftp.monash.edu.au, mirrors the Microsoft Windows archive
: site at ftp.winsite.com. It includes Windows tips, utilities and
: demonstrations. The archive currently maintains approximately
: 2.4 gigabytes of Microsoft Windows related material. The files are not
: virus checked, nor tested for functionality, so you must assume full
: responsibility for their use on your machine. Fetchfile is no longer supported. 

: The archive is updated daily at 10:00 PM AEST.


: ** Access to Archive

: Ftp access to our archive is quite simple:  type "ftp ftp.monash.edu.au"
: to your prompt. You'll be asked for a login name (type "anonymous" or "ftp").
: Enter username@hostname.domain for a password.


: ** Finding Software:  The INDEX File

: Go into the win3 directory ("cd pub/win3"), and see what we have by
: getting the ASCII file called "INDEX"  (type "get INDEX" to your ftp
: prompt).  The file "INDEX.ZIP" is the pkzip'ed version of the "INDEX"
: file. This file contains an ordered list of the files in each
: subdirectory with a brief one line description of each file. You must
: type "bin" or "tenex" before getting INDEX.ZIP.


: ** Downloading Software

: Most of the Windows 3 archives are in the "zip" format for which you will
: need the pkunzip utility. A copy of pkunzip can be found in the pub/pc 
: directory on ftp.monash.edu.au

: Change into individual directories (e.g., "cd pub/win3/fonts") and issue
: a "dir" or "ls" command to see the available files.  When you are ready
: to download, tell ftp you're transferring binary files (type "tenex"
: or "binary" to your ftp prompt) and you're ready to fetch files ("get
: filename").


: ** Uploading Software

: Windows files should be uploaded to the primary source of the archive which
: is ftp.winsote.com. Your upload will automatically appear on our archive
: the next time CICA is mirrored. This will occur within 24 hours of your upload.
: I will normally not accept uploads if it could have been uploaded to CICA.

: If, for some reason, you feel that you must upload a file to our archive,
: then please place all uploads in the "pub/uploads" subdirectory and send
: mail to "steve@cc.monash.edu.au" BRIEFLY describing your contribution.
: The same rules apply to uploading as downloading:  if the file is a PC
: binary, type "tenex" or "bin" first before doing a "put filename".

: I would like to set some sort of standard file format here so that you
: don't need fifteen different file compression utilities to unwrap the
: software.  Therefore, please use PKZIP (version 1.1 or later) or ZOO
: (version 2.00 or later) to wrap your software.


: ** Questions?

: E-mail to steve@cc.monash.edu.au


: ** A Reminder!

: Please, PLEASE remember to type "TENEX" or "bin" to your ftp program
: *BEFORE* uploading or downloading binary files. You will end up getting
: "corrupt files" if you didn't type "tenex" or "bin" before downloading.

: If you are using KERMIT to transfer from your Unix host to your PC,
: remember to tell kermit "set file type binary" before beginning the
: download.
