Hi AVSers,

Due to popular demand, the compressed archive of the IAC's ftp site
(formerly known as ALL_OF_IT.tar.Z) has been split into several files.  
These smaller files will allow easier downloading to your local site -
ALL_OF_IT.tar.Z was getting quite large!

When you anonymous ftp to avs.ncsc.org, you will see a directory
called avs_archives.  CDing to this directory will show the following
message, which pretty much explains it all:

---------------------------------------------------------------------
     The files in this subdirectory are compressed tar format
archives created from files on this anonymous ftp site at the
International AVS Center.

     You can easily create a local copy of almost all of the ftp 
site with these files, which as of today (9/28/92) consist of:

	ALL_OF_FILTERS.tar.Z	/* AVS filter modules */   
	ALL_OF_INPUT.tar.Z	/* AVS data input modules */
	ALL_OF_KHOROS.tar.Z	/* AVS Khoros modules */
	ALL_OF_MAPPERS.tar.Z	/* AVS mapper modules */
	ALL_OF_MISC.tar.Z	/* miscellaneous files */
	ALL_OF_OUTPUT.tar.Z	/* AVS data output modules */

     For example, if I wanted to get all of the IAC's filter
modules, I would:

	1. Use binary ftp to download ALL_OF_FILTERS.tar.Z
	2. uncompress ALL_OF_FILTERS.tar.Z
	3. tar -xvf ALL_OF_FILTERS.tar
	4. rm ALL_OF_FILTERS.tar
---------------------------------------------------------------------

PLEASE NOTE: The khoros modules aren't completely on the site
yet - please give the IAC a couple more days on this.

Thanks, and have fun AVSing!

-Steve
