		Updates to the mims-iris font archive
		-------------------------------------

NEW ITEMS:

/fonts/chunks:
	This directory contains chunked versions of files that were
	previously too large for the mail server.
/fonts/mac:
	A selection of Mac fonts, mostly from info-mac archives.
/fonts/util:
	fontcvt.shar  -- Mac-to-Vfont converter
	showpcl.arc   -- LaserJet PCL command viewer (from SIMTEL)

ACCESS:

To access the archive via ftp, use the ftp program to connect to
mims-iris.waterloo.edu (129.97.129.116); use userid 'ftp' and enter your
real userid as the password.  Use binary mode to transfer all compressed
files.  NOTE:  Please try to avoid accessing the archive between 8 AM and
5 PM EST, as our network links are heavily loaded.  Thanks!

To access the archive by mail, send a mail message to the userid 
font-server@mims-iris.waterloo.edu with your request(s) in the message
body.  You might start by sending a message 'help' or asking for the
index ('send index').  The message for 'help' contains a list of
accessible directories and their aliases.  The mail server usually
responds quite quickly; if you get no response within a few days, send
a note to font-panic@mims-iris.waterloo.edu.

There is no anonymous uucp access available -- sorry!
