Well I've got a different question about NN - where is it ?

I thought it was on atari.archive (called nn13.lzh) but I couldn't find
it in the Telecomm directory or anywhere else.  Any clues as to where I 
can find it ?  I've only got e-mail (ftpmai) access so FTP details isn't
much good to me, sorry.
