Well I'm and St owner who is completely green to all of this uploading, uud,
arc lark and there sounds as if there is some really interesting ST stuff out
there (i'm interested in music/graphics stuff) but I don't know how to get my
hands on it. I tried going to atari.archives from newsnet but the group doesnt
seem to exist. Also I need to get my hands on arc, lharc, zoo etc i presume so
that I can use the files if I ever do manage to get my hands on them. 
  I really haven't a clue what to do! If anyone out there could give a complete
beginners guide then I would be very grateful. I'm working on sun 3/50's and
we have the facilities to download stuff to 1040 ST's. We don't seem to have
uudecode (or whatever) facilities on Unix so I'd need ST versions of these.
  So to make this posting a bit more coherent,

1) how do I access atari.archives
2) how do I download stuff
3) how do I get a decompression thingie(s)
4) how do I use it on the downloaded stuff!

Sorry for being a complete thickie,

Mat.
