The Z archive is now available via anonymous FTP on the Internet. Type
the command "ftp ftp.comlab.ox.ac.uk" to a Unix shell and use
"anonymous" as the login id and your e-mail address as the password
when prompted. "cd Zforum" will get you into the Z archive directory.
The file "00index" gives a list of the files. (Retrieve this using the
command "get 00index".) Many files (with the suffix ".Z") are
compressed to save space and allow quicker transfer.  Remember to use
the "binary" FTP command before accessing these.  The Unix "uncompress"
utility will restore such files. If this is a problem to users, then
commonly used files could be uncompressed.

Please report any problems and send any submissions for addition to the
archive to <zforum-request@comlab.ox.ac.uk>.
