Hello!

  Here is the first set of files we've added to the archive 
this year.  I'm suffering from writer's block as I'm running 
out of town for job interviews tommorrow early morning and I have "Essay
Writing" homework due before I go...  I would guess that the highlights
in this release would include a version of PPP, a Postscript interpreter,
and some games (an update ot Oxyd, and an adventure game called 
"Save Princeton").

  If you're having trouble using our mail server at the moment, we're
aware of the trouble and we'll be working to fix it.  And if you can't
connect to the archive (if it keeps rejecting your connections), don't
forget we're always accessible via AFS -- in the 
/afs/umich.edu/group/itd/archive directory, or Gopher -- to 
gopher.uis.itd.umich.edu, or through our mirrors, such as 
wuarchive.wustl.edu.
  
  To add your name to my frequent ftp'ers recent files mailing list,
send me a message at "mac-recent-request@mac.archive.umich.edu".
And if you have questions, just send them to us at 
"questions@mac.archive.umich.edu".  

Thanks!
