Archive-name: auto/rec.martial-arts/Aikido-FTP-archive-notice

The aikido FTP archives on cs.ucsd.edu won't be updated during October, 
since the archive maintainer will be in Japan for a month of serious 
training.  However, additions and changes will continue to be accepted.

Here's the current directory listings:

Here's the README file:

The aikido dojo lists (formerly maintained at iuvax.cs.indiana.edu)
are now at cs.ucsd.edu (132.239.51.3) via anonymous FTP in /pub/aikido.
There are currently 3 lists in compressed format:

	aikido-Asia-Aus-NZ.Z
	aikido-Europe.Z
	aikido-North-America.Z

There are also 3 plain text files:

	README       (this file)
	FORMAT       (contains style guide for dojo listings)
	periodicals  (contains list of aikido periodicals)

An example of how joe@cs.podunk.edu would obtain a list via anonymous FTP:

	% ftp cs.ucsd.edu
	User: anonymous
	Password: joe@cs.podunk.edu
	ftp> cd pub/aikido
	ftp> binary
	ftp> get aikido-North-America.Z
	ftp> quit
	%

The lists are also available via email through an FTP mailer such 
as ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com or bitftp@pucc.princeton.edu, for example:

	% mail ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com
	connect cs.ucsd.edu
	binary
	chdir /pub/aikido
	get aikido-North-America.Z
	quit
	.
	%

(For more info on FTP mailer usage, send the message HELP to the mailer.)

The file is sent as ASCII (using the btoa filter), and will need to be 
decoded back to compressed format.  Strip off the mail headers using
an editor (such as vi or emacs), then run atob (btoa -a).

Use the "uncompress" command to change the file into a readable format:

	% uncompress aikido-North-America.Z

Additions, modifications, and suggestions should be sent to:

	 aikido@cs.ucsd.edu

Onegaishimasu!
